The Thieves of Solluna

THE THIEVES OF SOLLUNA

Welcome to the mystical land of Solluna! It's a bustling city in the Lunan Mountains that makes a fortune off of the gem mines located nearby. The city is literally a goldmine...so it's no wonder that the place attracts thieves. Lately the city's defenses have been getting more and more thorough, and anyone who is caught is enslaved and shipped off to the mines. But there are rumors that a priceless treasure has been found and is being brought to the city for safe-keeping. If you managed to get your hands on such a thing it would set you up for life! But is it worth the risk of living a never-ending death in the disease-ridden mines?

Form:
Name: Jayco
Age (12+): 17
Gender: male
Appearance: short black hair with gray-blue eyes, rust-covered greaves and a very worn cloak-like thing
Personality: TBRP'd
Weapons (medieval): Daggers, one of which has a curved point, ideal for picking locks

Name: Asha
Age: 16
Gender: Female
Appearance: Short with long dirty blond hair that she often puts up during jobs
Personality: TBRP'd
Weapons: a thin rapier


I'll add my own form in a bit. The main thing you need to know is that this rp takes place in a semi-medieval world; think of Lord of the Rings. So the main form of transportation is either on foot or on horseback. All thieves start out independent but depending on how the role-play goes they might team up or form rivalries or whatever.

Form:
Name: Aston Bradlund
Age (12+): 16
Gender: Male
Appearance: Tousled brown hair, a sharp face with light stubble growing, and hazel eyes. He has a slim, athletic build, honed by his thiefy ways (yes, I just made that up. :P). He wears common clothes with bits of leather for padding, mainly around his joints.
Personality: Aston acts snarky and jokes around a lot, but he tends to be rather reserved, because street life has led him to believe that no one can be trusted, following his own code of "don't give anyone the opportunity to betray you".
Weapons (medieval): Castle-forged rapier, one of the first things he stole, and throwing daggers.
Other: Can we know a bit more about this world?

Both accepted!

@Grimshadow Sorry I probably should have been more clear. So...this world is mostly based on medieval themes, but don't think knights and kings and castles...the first thing that came to my mind was Laketown from the The Hobbit movies, except obviously in a more mountainous region. Actually the set-up is a lot like the kingdom in the Tangled (Rapunzel) movie, like the way the guards are, etc. Another movie that comes to mind is Puss in Boots. Basically...this place is pretty much like any medieval type story setting portrayed in cinema. As far as ranks go, up in Solluna since it is so reserved from the rest of civilization (which does not really factor into the role play as far as I know) it's mostly the few nobles/merchants/money-lenders and the many peasants, like Robin Hood on a smaller scale.

I hope that shed some light...is there anything specifically you were curious about? Haha, I'm still pretty new at this and literally just thought of this so nothing's set in stone.

Accepted, and yeah, that's fine!

We can start roleplaying whenever...I'll post my starters below when I get a chance but you all can start if you want.

@Phoenix @Grimshadow @Leaf (I guess I'll start then )

A sharp metallic clang rang out in the cold night air, making a shadow barely distinguishable from the rotting wood wall hiss softly in alarm. It pressed itself against the rickety structure as two guards hurried by, armor showing beneath the various rags and shreds of fabric that acted as impromptu scarves. The shadow waited until they passed then ran lightly after them, sticking to the deepest shadows and not stopping for a second lest the dry wood floors creak underneath him. When the footsteps of the soldiers ceased Jayco slammed against a wall, biting his tongue as he realized too late that it was made of stone. He comforted himself by recalling that stone walls were often built near the center of Sollunan structures. The logic behind this was that the fireplaces located somewhere within would then warm the whole house. He grimaced as he ran his hand along the freezing stone; he must be close.

Asha watched the house from the outside, wrapping her cloak closer around her as the wind whistled shrilly through the pines. She had seen the shadow who had slipped into the building and knew that she stood a better chance of success by herself. She too had heard of the bounty that would be within the Head Merchant's house; priceless Sollunan diamonds, each one so precious that selling one could set anyone up for life. Her fingers twitched as she imagined holding one of the gems...she must get a hold of one...She leaned against a tree trunk as someone within the Merchant's house lit a torch. She hoped that they had found the other thief...the uproar caused by his capture would allow her to swoop in and take the treasure for herself...

(Sorry xD Question~ How are the seasons like here, and what is the current season, just so my character's clothing is appropriate. ^.^)

A figure moved through the small crowds of commoners, blending in with the shadows wherever possible. They weren't being particularly sneaky, as anyone who might actually pay attention to the figure would think nothing more of them than perhaps a beggar. It was more out of habit, but it always pays to be cautious when you think you ought not need to. They moved onwards, drawing closer and closer to their destination, some old nobleman's house near the outskirts of the city; a convenient enough place for a thief to make a bit of coin. The patrols passed less often through the outskirts, and even then, there were rarely many men, fewer still enough that were capable of catching this agile thief.
