Post 2D:Core Fates [One-Third Way through Character Creation]

2D: Core Fates
Pending Full Campaign

As a Forthright Note: I have no idea what I'm doing, and will only be recruiting a small amount of people for players, and taking others for comments.
With that said I will require 3 players, for now.
This is simply so that I can explain what I am thinking with MLC, and further pursue the foundation, and solidification of delineation

RED
Name: Nathaniel Ectio
Sex: Male
Preferences in Magic: Necromancy, Transmutation
Preferences in Elements: Light, Dark
Preferences in General: Healing

Biography:
Nathaniel was born into a poor household. His mother was always sickly and his father had left the family long ago, never to be seen again. Left basically to fend for himself, Nathaniel found he had the ability to control the life-force of other creatures... and people. The power went to his head, and he abused it for a time, using it to threaten others in the slums and get what he wanted.
However, when his mother finally succumbed to a terrible sickness, his uncontrolled powers, fueled by his grief, caused her animated corpse to rise and begin terrorizing people. Horrified by what he had done, Nathaniel fled his home. He eventually met a scholar who taught him how to control his abilities, and set him to work as his assistant. Nathaniel spent a few years in his care, but became restless, and felt the need to travel and search for meaning in life. He left with his teacher's blessing, visited his old home one last time to pay respects to his mother, and set off on a journey that would take him who-knows-where....

Nathaniel is a bit of a pessimist. He never believes that things will simply 'work out for the best,' and commonly prepares himself for disappointment. This does not stop him from having a strong sense of justice, however; he cannot stand seeing people mistreated, for it brings back guilty memories of the times he used others to get what he wanted. Indeed, he feels guilty every time he uses his skills in Necromancy, though his teacher always told him he had such powers for a reason. Caught between confused guilt and a sense of duty to help those who are in a state of poverty as he once was, Nathaniel continues to search for a reason for his existence.

~

Tell me what you think, Foa, and if I need to change anything.

So no one wanted to got for less than Five, well, I said up to 5, so I guess 5 weights.

If you look at it, it turn out they are an idealized grid of 6 by 6 elements, with an outline reflecting their owner.
The borders are going to be very important in the bare bones of a system I have come up with.

I hold all regrets, and no responsibility for the massive failure that may be.
That being said, I may need extensive help [editor and author sort of relationship] to get it fit and trim.

Gnomyc Lacire : Of Floating Isthmus, and the Eden Furnace

Floating amidst an ever grander ocean, a continental archipelago sits, slowly teetering. Above its center, it is bathed in gracious, and powerful light that never moves or dims, and allows for any life to survive on this frozen landscape. With its grand energies, the inhabitants have heard, and ruminated legends for its existence, and strange effects people have been able to cast.

The massive Islands float in an almost order pair; and as events far from history have fractured the structure from below, it is thought that it used to be part of a greater whole.

It is too dangerous to venture far into the treacherous waters, as the only light is the Brilliant Hearth above Gnomyc Lacire. And, as such, the outer reaches are bathed in a perennial dusk, and twilight.
Further out, it is questionable that people can manage in the briefest of zodiacal lights.

[POPULATIONS TBD]
[CULTURE TBD]
[HISTORY TBD]

PINKY
Name: Amelia Oaks
Sex: Female
Preferences in Magic: Abjuration, Divination, Enchantment
Preferences in Elements: Light
Preferences in General: Tank/Support

Biography: Born into wealth, the Oaks family was known for its greed, obsession for power, and inability to discern the gender of children. Amelia quickly became fed up with her family and left at the young age of 13 to join the church, devoting her life to aid others and fight the corruption in kings and nobles. With powerful supportive skills and experience with shields and heavy armor, Amelia fought on the front lines in holy wars as a heavy defender or from the rear as a support mage. With time, the church had eliminated all of the visible corruption in the hearts of leaders, only to fall to corruption itself, and eventually tear itself apart from internal conflicts.

With the church collapsed and her family one of the many accused and executed, Amelia travels the land, searching for a purpose while questioning her past actions.
