Dastan

IC (Dastan): It took all of the Toa's willpower to stay focused. Though this place was once somewhat of his home, right now he couldn't do anything to change what happned; he was late... He wasn't there to help them... It was getting dark. Soon he won't be able to see much without yousing his powers. Dastan slowly pulled out his glowing sword that could be yoused as a torch while making efforts not to let his increasing rage fully take over his mind. Suddenly, he heard a strange noise. "What is that supposed to be survivors, or enemies?" he thought, moving towards the noise's source through dark ruins. Almost an hour passed as he reached the outpost. OOC: It turned out to be so much more fun to play alone

IC (Dastan): After sprinting a few miles, completely exhausted, Dastan staggered upon the shattered building of a once great village. "It's too late. We've already lost..." he thought as he gazed at the ruins and dead corpses. OOC: I'm sooo open for interaction.

IC(Dastan): It has been a while since his last visit to Ko-Koro. As a matter of fact, years past until Dastan was able to force himself to come here. The young Toa was taking step after step, yeach one of wich made him to plunge deeper in the snow, while white flakes continued to fall from the sky. And though he was wrapped in to a large black cloak and wasn't a stranger to such a climate, he felt fatigue fastly spreading across his body. "How happens, I softed that much..." he thought to himself, "It used to be so much easier to climb a bowlder during a snowstorm. Oh, the good old days..." A smile appeared on his blue Hau, only to vaporate as Dastan reached the glaciers peak. From here, it was possible to see almost a half of the entire Wahi: white streached as far as could see the eye. However, today, a large column of black smoke rose in the air above the place where Ko-Koro was supposed to be located. A few instants passed, as he gazed in awe at the terrible sight, after what he suddenly sprinted forward. He ran as fast as he could, forgeting about all his fatigue, cold and snow. "Never more," he thought as he raced forward, "I won't fail. Not this time." OOC: So much for a first post. I'm open for interaction, in case of what.

Sounds harsh...Still, to trust a team, I'll first have to find one. Or at least a partner. Getting in such a mess without someone to cover your back sounds less than attractive, if you ask me. Thank you for such a warm welcoming) I have already read these topics, and found them very usefull to start playing. In case of what, I'll humbly PM you or the staff) Wiser words haven't been spoken, Kughii. Though still... It is hard to admit, that this battle is lost, and there's nothing left for us to do but to flee from the battlefield in efforts to minimize casualties. Ko-Koro will never be the same...

Still, to try would be right thing to do, wouldn't it? Does anyone here, but me, express somewhat of a will to participate?

If it's a real time event, can simple mortal take place in it? And if yes, are there any chances that the Sanctum can be saved?

Name: Dastan Species: Toa of Electricity Alignment: Lawfull Good Gender: Male Appearence: Tall, muscullar and slim at the same time, Dastan can surelly be called quite attractive. He wears dark blue armor with decorated roman silver colored sholder-plates and some other minor parts of his body. A large black cape is an almost invariable part of his appearence as well. His Mask is a vissualy modified Great Kanohi Hau, of the same colour as his armor; Dastan's eyes are always bright blue, though in moments of anger and rage, they get covered by small lightning bolts that even can unintentionally hurt someone standing close enogh. Weapon(s): Mjolnir Midnight Blade - an ancient sword covered with runes, found in the depths of Xa-Koro prior to it's destruction. Razor sharp, long and light, this weapon can be devastating in skillfull hands. Rage - a spiked protosteel chain wrapped around Dastan's left hand and elbow. It can be used in close combat as well as in midle-disstance, and is especcially dangerous, considering his elemetal power. Powers: As a Toa of Electricity, (though he prefers his kind to be referenced as "Toa of Lightning") Dastan can absorb, manipulate and create electricity fields, as well as shoot lightning bolts from hands (or most weapons), create bolt lightning and etc. His level of control over this element is quite large and regularly improved via training and meditation. Personality and traits: More of a loner than a team player, Dastan was taught to rely on himself and only. As a result, he became independent, but particularly asocial, but smart and charismatic. Though with a strong sence of duty, he will not hesitate about finishing of an opponent he sees too dangerous to leave alive. He's mostly serious and laconic, although time after time you can see him pull off a few jokes here and there, or taunt his enemy. History: Once a Ni-matoran, he grew far away from the island of Mata Nui. Soon afterwards, upon his settling in Ko-Koro, Dastan gained his powers of a Toa, and here he started to learn how to use his abilities by meditating in Ihu-Koro and to enchance his fighting skills, dramatically increasing them through years. One day, the village was atacked. The atackers turned out to be a group of Skadki with elemental powers - a result of someones twisted experiment. And though Dastan fought fircely, he wasn't able to singly protect the village. Heavily wounded, he was taked for dead and left unconsious between corpses of matoran. He woke up a few days later, only to find Ihu-Koro - the village he thought to be his home, destroyed. This event left the young Toa of Lightning with some serious emotional scars. He has been travelling for about a year ever since, fighting evil in all it's forms and looking for his true purpose. Weakness(es): Dastan's light and flexible armor allows him to move swiftly in combat, but it can't take much severe battle damage. In such cases he relies on his Mask of Shielding, what makes him vulnerable to ambushes.

Yes!! Thanks)

Hello there people! I'm creating a character for myself and thought: are elements "atached" to genders in this reality? For example, can I create a female Toa of Fire or a male Toa of Electricity?
