Story
Every village has its quirks, its secrets, its village idiots too. To say anything different of Mosskeep, the setting in which this story takes place, would be nothing short of laughable. Even more so when one considers the fact that every inhabitant of this fairly large village is or was an adventurer at some point or another. None know why or how they've come to Mosskeep, let alone to live within its borders, but at this point none seem to really care. The world is beautiful and the lands fertile, even if coin isn't always the easiest thing to come across.
Having such a diverse population in both talents and morals, it is fair to assume that daily life in this land is most violent. At least death isn't permanent. (Wait. What?!) That's right! When one dies their corpse fades within a couple days or so, as will any blood or other remnants left at the scene of their death. In about four days after his or her death, the deceased will find himself or herself back where their adventures in Mosskeep first began - the seemingly shoddy inn/tavern that rests at the center of town. For all but those born in this world, time is but an illusion. Those not born in Mosskeep generally do not age beyond the day in which they first stumbled upon this unusual village.
Whether one makes his or her living by the blade or the hoe, by the hammer or bow, or even by the broken lute, there is always plenty to do and plenty more to fight in Mosskeep. Will you get by as a thuggish swordsman? A simple farmer? A cunning thief? A magical intellectual? Or whatever other path offers itself before you? There is a legacy to be made, one to surpass whatever you've built before your days in Mosskeep. Whatever it is, I look forward to seeing how you go about accomplishing it...

Rules/Notes of Interest
Moderators There are currently two people in charge of this roleplay. Animeprincess_9400 and ZimbuTessen. You will treat both with respect and realize that their word is law. Should you break the rules or cause OOC trouble, either one has the right to kill off your character(s) and ban your a** back to the stone age.
OBVIOUS OBLIGATORY s**t THAT I MUST MENTION •If you cyber in this thread, you will be banned. When things get sexual between two characters, either timeskip or take it to the PM's. Before anyone tries to get smart (read: total dumbass) with me, here is my defenition of cybering: Extremely explicit sex scenes between two or more characters. (or one, if it involves "Rosey Palmer") Semi-explicit sexual conversations skirt the border, but are not room for punishment unless done far too frequently for good tastes, up to the point of offending anyone and everyone after a certain point in time. (I'm a fan of raunchy humor myself, so I'd be a hyppocrit to ban you for just making the occassional sex joke.) •Follow Gaia's ToS, obviously, otherwise you don't even belong on this website until you do. If you haven't read them yet, SHAME ON YOU. •Type in complete sentences and in third person, lest we be unable to read and reply to your posts. Seriously, nothing is more annoying than being bitched out for ignoring a post you literally can't properly reply to. •If you join, at least make an effort to remain active, even if it is only one or two posts a week. If you must go inactive for an extended period of time and truly cannot help it, by all means, let us know instead of leaving us in the dark - especially if your character is vital to that current plot arc. •I ******** SWEAR I will AUTOBAN anybody who uses asterisks(**'s) for actions in script-format posts and does not use quotation marks for speach. Those types of s**t posts should be left in MMO style roleplaying, like in World or Warcraft or Mabinogi. •I will NOT accept characters that are not your own creation or that are obviously just renamed cameos of characters that did not originally belong to you. It is okay for you to use whatever photobucket pictures you wish to give a basic idea of what your character looks like, but that is it. It is okay to make refferences to famous characters or to make innocent parodies of them, as we all do that at some point or another. It is when it is a carbon copy or way too similar for comfort when it becomes a problem. (At least try to be semi-original, people!) •Have fun!
God-Modding God-modding, auto-hitting, power-playing, or whatever the hell else you call it is not permitted unless deemed necessary by the admins of this RP for story or punishment reasons. Certain characters can be deemed 'unkillable', 'undefeatable', or whatever else we might call it by the administrators of this roleplay. These characters are not allowed to start a physical fight, but they are certainly allowed to defend him/herself or their possible kin should the need arise. Chances are, though, your character is not one such being - so don't even bother with this sort of bullshit or said character will be promptly killed off with no real hope of return. Permadeaths are extremely uncommon in this world, but not impossible.
Children Admittably, this is like a violent and perhaps raunchy Harvest Moon RP, except more DnD oriented and not in the same universe as Harvest Moon. It would be unrealistic of me to not expect children to come along at some point or another. (Just don't get too crazy with the mix-breeding, please? Though half breeds are expected at some point or another. Just don't breed up to the point where everybody is 1/16th everything to exist ever.) Unlike their parents, who did not come from Mosskeep, these children will age as the years go by. The less talented, once they come of age, will stop aging in mid to late adulthood. The more talented and mentally sound, however, will disappear days after coming of age and will not be seen again for several years. This phenomena worries some who live in Mosskeep, as those who return refuse to explain how this came to be or what happened inbetween their disappearance and return, but is met with apathy by most.
Profiles •Fill out the profile skeleton provided in a post below. You are not to bold out the information you fill in, nor are you to remove: the bolding of the categories, the alignment, or the size; lest you wish your profile to be rejected until these issues are fixed. •PM all profiles to Animeprincess_9400 with the PM entitled 'Mossy Beer' to show that you've read the rules. (Or at least the profiles bit, you lazy b*****d) •I hold every right to accept or reject profiles as I see fit. If you can't stand that, then kiss my a** and join a different roleplay.

PROFILE DISAMBIGUATION
Gender: Female, Male, Hermaphrodite, ect. ect. Race: Human, Elf, Werewolf, Harpy, Fairy, ect. ect. So long as it isn't used as an excuse to godmod, you can be pretty much any existing magical species that you can think of - just be ready to explain exactly what it is when anyone asks. Age: How old your character was when he or she first came to Mosskeep Name: What does your character go by? This does not have to be his or her real name. If it isn't, please include your character's name in white text if it is generally unknown. In fact, if anything is generally unknown about your character, color it in white text. Don't color everything in white text, though, or I'll remove all color coding and post it up butt naked color-wise.
Talents/Abilities: From day to day talents to skills in combat, use this section of your character's profile to brag about everything they're good at. Just try not to sound like an egotistical douche unless that's their personality trait, kthnxbai. Weaknesses: Any shortcomings, whether they be due to skill or personality, that can prove seriously detrimental to your character's cause(s) at times should be listed here. Nobody's perfect. Even the unkillables should have plenty put here. Should no significant weaknesses be filled out, your profile will be rejected. Unkillable? I fill this in. Though unless this is a moderator's rule-enforcing character or plot demands your character be such, chances are, you're killable.
Appearance: What does your character look like? Anything from anime pictures to hand-drawn concept art to very detailed and lengthy descriptions are allowed and encouraged. No pictures of myspace camwhores doing those annoying as hell duckfaces, though. That s**t just won't fly here. Themesong(s): Are there any songs you know of that at least remotely fit what you have in mind for your character that you would like to share? Are you a musical artist who likes composing melodies to fit each character you write? Link that s**t up in here! Entirely optional, of course. This is mostly done just to share music that we like, make small jokes, or to get certain feelings or personality traits across. Orientation: Hetero, Bi, Homo ect ect. Basically, what is your character's sexual prefference? If you have absolutely no intention of ever romancing your character, so state. Relationship Status: single, Engaged, or Married. If not interested in romance at all what so ever, so state afterwards. Friends: Who does your character enjoy hanging out with, or at the very least plans on saving for last when they eventually snap and decide to kill everyone in Mosskeep? Enemies: Who does your character hate, loathe, despise, and/or dream about killing nightly? List these rotten bastards right here!
--NOTE-- You do not have to list any friends, enemies, or lovers before the roleplay starts or just as you send in your character. These can be filled in as the RP goes along.
Lover(s): Is there anybody your character is in love with? Or at least likes to shag on discount beer night? Offspring: What idiot monster child spawned from your unfortunate character's groin?
Other: Anything extra that didn't quite fit any of the above categories. Oh! And if you want to color your profile, feel more than free. Otherwise, it stays the default ugly a** gray. Username: Your gaia username. HURPADURP.

Accepted Females
Gender: Female Race: Tiefling Age: Twenty-Four Name: Barkeep//Challoe (pronounced SHUH-LOWE)
Talents/Abilities: Being the owner of the Clever Shrew, many of the Barkeep's talents revolve around keeping the business up and going. From cooking delicious yet inexpensive meals to brewing ale to keeping rowdy customers in line even, Barkeep is a jack of all trades when it comes to her business. This is justified, however, since she has only recently started hiring others to help with the inn so that she may have a little free time of her own. Most of her talents that don't revolve around the tavern are combat based, especially in terms of melee. Barkeep is far stronger than she looks, able to handle heavier two-handed swords in combat without getting fatigued. Barkeep has incredibly high physical endurance, meaning that she can take more of a beating than most without kicking the bucket. She can use some lesser healing magics and grant lesser blessings, but for the most part, her skills are combat-oriented. Weaknesses: Barkeep considers herself to be a woman of honor and chivalry, often obeying otherwise unreasonable rules and showing excessive kindness to the effeminate even when it would be otherwise foolish. When such rules and personal codes do not forbid it, though, she tends to be extremely stubborn and uncompromising. When it comes to any sort of goal she's set, these personality traits drive her to more self harm than good, for she will chase her ambitions relentlessly until she has accomplished each and every one of them. Combat-wise, Barkeep is not very fast, making up with strength for what she lacks in finesse. Unkillable? Unkillable
Appearance: Shitty Concept Art - Drawn by Animeprincess_9400 Barkeep has a short yet sturdy physical build, one well toned to the art of combat. Her face is round and heart shaped, with two large doe-like dark brown eyes gazing out from beneath lengthy eyelashes. She has a long, pointy nose and lush, pink lips. Protruding from her forhead, one might notice two small, slightly wavy grayish horns. Her skin is a slightly tanned peach color with darker cheetah-like spots dotting her skin on the borders of her face, the back of her neck, her shoulders, and probably other areas that one can't quite see from the outside of her plain, earthy-colored clothes. Her wind-swept hair is short and shines with a healthy copper red hue.
Themesong(s): Cage the Elephant - Ain't No Rest for the Wicked Orientation: Heterosexual Relationship Status: {{UNDECIDED}} Friends: Kajiya, Venge, Lucy Enemies: Lover: Offspring:
Other: You ******** with her business, you will suffer. It might not be immediate, but she is a strong believer in the eye-for-an-eye philosophy.
On a completely different note, Barkeep has a surprisingly religious side to her. Although she seldom mentions it, she is a devoted worshipper of the God of Death and pays her respects to said god every so often. She sometimes even leaves offerings for the sake of those she comes to like when paying her respects to her patron diety, although if anyone ever asked she'd vehemently deny it. Username: Animeprincess_9400
Gender: Female Race: Nature faerie Age: 14 Name: Chthulhuiserafineramarklinavas, also called Rebekah.
Talents/Abilities: Magic, glamour, can run pretty fast, pro chocolate eater, can control the minds of bunnies and little mousies, gives excellent hugs. Weaknesses: BEES! BEES! BEES!, chocolate, pointy things, fuzzy things, shiny things, funny things, blue things, iron things, loud things, bees, always tells the truth, goddamn bees. Unkillable? 'TIS BUT A SCRATCH. [Killable]
Appearance: She's super tall, and she has pink hair and pink eyes and green skin and sometimes flowers pop up on her skin and in her hair, and her limbs are all stretched out in proportion to her nine-foot-tall frame. Themesong(s): Orientation: Lesbian Relationship Status: HUGS FOR EVERYONE. Friends: Everyone! Enemies: Nobody! (as far as she knows) Lover(s): Too young Offspring: Too young
Other: She likes rolling around in flowers, and petting kittens, and disemboweling any who dare to insult the Faerie Queen. Username: Luciraptor
Gender: Female Race: Panther Lycan Age: 4 Name: Lucy Greyson
Talents/Abilities: She is of her mother's stock, therefore she can transform into a panther cub. She has trouble going back to human, so she retains her cat ears and tails, along with retractable nails. She is energetic, but rarely talks. She thinks her voice is strange. She adored Barkeep and her father. She sometimes calls Barkeep her mother, though, not understanding the concept as never really knowing her real mom. Weaknesses: She is four, guess. Also, sense she came to Mosskeep from outside, she is locked as a four year old Unkillable? Killable
Appearance: Lucy Themesong(s): Orientation: um...what? Relationship Status: Single, duh Friends: Barkeep is her bestust friend ever! Enemies: anyone nasty and stinky. Lover(s): ew... kisses Offspring: too young and Venge would kill the father
Other: She loves watermelon and shares with Kajiya a lot Username: Valiant Fenris
Gender: Female. Race: Nymph Age: Twenty-one. Name: Evelyn Fortuna.
Talents/Abilities: What Evelyn doesn’t have in strength, she has in agility and speed. She is definitely more flexible that most and certainly more clever. She has the ability to put anyone down, being quite the rude one, but anyone could soften her up with a good drink or sweet cake. She has chlorokinesis to some extent and healing powers. Weaknesses: Okay, so Evelyn can’t stand children. What of it? Okay, so she panics when she’s around children. So what? Surely, Evelyn can’t be around children without being overwhelmed, partly due to her unusual issues but that hasn’t stopped Evelyn from walking into a daycare if it meant having a meal and a drink or two. Right, Evelyn is a sucker for snacking and with the right appetite, Evelyn could be bribed into almost anything. However, it’d be the death of anyone if they ate her cooking. She is not exactly weak but strength is not her strong point; and she absolutely hates heights. She also has a temper, not knowing when to say no or stop sometimes. Unkillable? Killable
Appearance: E v e l y n Themesong(s): Polish Girl by Neon Indian Orientation: Bisexual. Relationship Status: Engaged. Friends: Kajiya, Rebekah (To some extent), and Barkeep. Enemies: Goddammed Lucy. Lover(s): Ren Offspring: Hell no.
Other: Evelyn is 'said' to have 'sacred powers' like 'reading fortunes' and such but really, Evelyn is just a con artist and suckers anyone out of their money; that is, anyone who doesn't know her antics. Evelyn didn’t know why she got engaged, surely not a one-man kind of woman but felt it would be good for her to settle. Despite such mentality, she is quite the outgoing one and being engaged wouldn’t stop her from flirting. Nonetheless, she works at Kajiya’s bath house, thinking she’d need the help, and is known to many as the local slut. Username: Creamsicle Bunnies.
Gender: Female Race: Human Age: 21 Name: Sora
Talents/Abilities: Gravity based magic, cooking, singing Weaknesses: fire, heat, poison Unkillable? No
Appearance: http://media.photobucket.com/image/xigbar/pkmnbreeder/Xigbar.jpg?o=15 [Expect is female] Themesong(s): Credans Justitiam Orientation: Bi Relationship Status: Non-existence Friends: Most people Enemies: Not many Lover(s): None Offspring: Too early!
Other: Username: Otakon BK

Accepted Males
Gender: Male Race: Lycanthrope Age: 25 Name: Venge Scott "Vengeance" Greyson
Talents/Abilities: Shifts into a large wolf at will. He is differentiated from a normal were-wolf because he is in control and can shift as he so pleases. He is also an expert marksman with a bow. He is fast, but not too strong in close combat. He usually sticks to hunting and acts of good, but he works outside of the law. He watches over Lucy like a hawk when he isn't busy. Weaknesses: Arachnophobia, weak in close quarters. He gets weak around a cute girl, something about a curse. And his chivalry. Unkillable? Killable
Appearance: Venge Themesong(s): Crazy Train Orientation: Hetero Relationship Status: Single Friends: Barkeep, Kajiya Enemies: a couple Lover(s): None Offspring: A daughter, Lucy
Other: His wife disappeared and he settled in Mosskeep with Lucy after loosing hope of her return to him and Lu Username: Valiant Fenris
Gender: Male. Race: Vampire. Age: Twenty-four. Name: Ren Winterbourne.
Talents/Abilities: Ren is blessed with inhuman strength and speed. He is most skilled in hand to hand, but knows his way with a blade and often keeps one at his belt. Besides combat, Ren dabbles in slight telepathy. He is still playing with it though. He is ambidextrous and skilled in many small tasks, including pick pocketing, lock picking, and juggling. Weaknesses: Despite being inhuman, Ren’s first most weakness is his need for blood. He can probably go up to four days without feeding, but Ren isn’t one to skip a meal. But if he is hungry for some time, he usually gets very cranky. For longer periods, he goes into senseless feeding or dies. Ren is allergic to garlic so he can’t really eat it, much less rub it on his body. He is quite paranoid, always quick to startle and is therefore subject to many pranks. Additionally, Ren can’t help but be honest ( He’s horrible liar ) and is submissive, especially to Evelyn. Unkillable? Killable
Appearance: R e n Themesong(s): First Day Of My Life by Bright Eyes Orientation: Heterosexual. Relationship Status: Engaged. Friends: Lucy, Venge, and Barkeep. Enemies: Kajiya (He just finds her a little creepy). Lover(s): Evelyn. Offspring: Thinking about it.
Other: Though Ren doesn’t wear the pants in his relationship, he could say that he loves Evelyn unconditionally, despite her drunken tendencies. He is a bit more sentimental and definitely much quieter of the two, but is friendly with practically anyone. Moreover, Ren has taken a job at the tavern to help out Barkeep, usually doing errands or helping Barkeep with orders. Username:Creamsicle Bunnies.
Gender: Male Race: Hero Age: 16 Name: Prince Mary the Fourth
Talents/Abilities: Incredibly pretentious, knows everything about everyone, skilled with a sword and with magic, can lie his way out of any situation. Perfectly aware of how great he is. Weaknesses: Sort of a jerk, can be disabled by giving him some sort of puzzle, ridiculously easy to sneak up on. Unkillable? Killable
Appearance: Tall, thin, always carries his sword and has his magic glove on, has a very powerful moustache, powerful and piercing green eyes, vaguely resembles a god or perhaps just an incredibly attractive angel. Themesong(s): Orientation: Hetero-WAIT! No, I meant homosexual. Very gay. Relationship Status: Friends: Enemies: Lover(s): Offspring:
Other: Seriously, he's great. Username: Luciraptor
Gender: Male Race: Human Age: 27 Name: Kaistern Ruwalk (pronounced ROO-WAHLK)
Talents/Abilities: Excellent swordsmanship, wind magic, and the slightly heightened senses of a man who's been attacked plenty of times before. He's also a pretty good cook. Weaknesses: Kinda likes money a little too much. Unkillable? Killable
Appearance: Name Themesong(s): Golden Time Lover by Sukima Switch Orientation: Straight Relationship Status: Friends: Enemies: Lover(s): Offspring:
Other: Has a horrible case of apathy in general, and works as a mercenary. Username: Zelly-fangirl

Accepted Hermaphrodites//Intersexed
Gender: Hermaphrodite Race: Half-Celestial Age: 21 Name: Kajiya
Talents/Abilities: Kajiya is the local Blacksmith, making almost all the equipment in town, from weapons to armor, and even tools for farming and day to day life. She also uses the heat from her forge to run a Bath House, which she turlly needs help running. She carries around a very large hammer covered in holy blue flame, both to fight and forge. When the shop is closed, she usually can be seen drinking and talking to the always busy Barkeep, and if she's sober, she might even help out. She's very cocky and rude, and an absolute whore at times. She can drink almost anyone under the table, and forces the loser to pay her tab. Weaknesses: Kajiya is forgetful, absentminded, and lazy. She hates when people comment on her small chest, and drinks away all of these troubles every night. She's chaotic and lies through her teeth, frequently getting her into trouble. Unkillable? Unkillable [doesn't stop poeple from trying]
Appearance: Somewhat short in height, skinny yet built, like a warrior Loli. She has a dark tan and messy pink hair pulled back into a ridiculously long and poofy ponytail. Her eyes are grayish white, she sports pillow lips, and her clothes are black shorts and a short white tank top, no shoes. And of course, a halo floating above her head. Themesong(s): Teddy Loid- Fly Away Orientation: Omegasexual Relationship Status: Single Friends: Barkeep, Venge Enemies: None... yet. Lover(s): Alot. XD Offspring: None.
Other: None yet. Username: ZimbuTessen
Gender: Intersexed Race: Demon Age: Nineteen Name: Cameron
Talents/Abilities: Cameron exceeds any normal human capabilities to some extent, quick footed and has powerful legs. He has an affinity for crows, they tend to like to flock around him. He is more domestically centered though, and is good with cooking and other household chores. Weaknesses: He was blessed, a curse really, to be transformed into two genders, a fact he is not proud of. It is a touchy subject for him, certainly injuring his man hood. As he was trying to save a princess from some wicked old geezer, he was blessed in the process. Certainly turning into a girl is a hassle for him, especially when the trigger for doing so is sneezing. Moreover, he is a coward, usually fleeing when any conflict arrives. Unkillable? Unless he could run from it. Otherwise, killable.
Appearance: C a m e r o n Themesong(s): Pretty Face by Soley Orientation: Asexual Relationship Status: Single, but not exactly interested in any particular person Friends: Any female (they’re more understanding). Enemies: Ren and Venge. Lover(s): None. Offspring: Ha.
Other: Cameron called Ren a ***** and died after his neck had been snapped. He has just been recently revived.
He hates being called young or a 'kid' without experience. Username: Creamsicle Bunnies
