Yes you can join. This is going to be fun.

Very interesting. I like it.


I'll see what I can do about that. If its ok with Navy, I'll take all the posts about the Om'Shan/Kalv'Shan and put them in the first post on here.

Sounds very Eragon-ish....I like it!!

And yes, I'd be tickled pink to be the Shade.

Yes, but I had never read Eragon before coming up with the Shade. Imagine my irritation on finding THAT out. Just know he's like James in many ways, but he's also his own person. He'll have all of James' knowledge from the time he was created, but afterwards he'll develop on his own, like any other person.

As far as this bond thing, it's not necessary to do the Life bond thing, but let's say that certain duos are that committed. By forming this special bond their powers are more attuned to each other, and they both have slightly longer life. As for James and Ayli, they aren't bonded at all. The war kept James from finishing the very last part of his training; bonding with a Sorceress. He had to leave or the world would have been covered in darkness. He barely stopped Rakar from conquering the world, after all.

So what exactly is the history and the steps needed? I'm so confused

I'm brainstorming a little with the Om'Shan and whatnot. Basically, here is James' story, highly condensed, and how I'm going to rewrite it, in a sense....grrr...for this RPG anyway.

James was brought up in a village where no one can use magic. It was forbidden and highly regarded as sinful. His parents didn't necessarily agree with it, but they wanted to live away from the mainland of Na'Damor. We'll call the world something else for the sake of this RPG.
James came to find that he was invulnerable to fire. Upon reaching the age of sixteen, he found out he was able to use magic. He hopped the next ship to the mainland, where his adventures brought him to Joline, whose prophecies led him to Amra. Amra was his training grounds, but once it was found out that he was the next Kalv'Shan, he had to leave for a previous city he'd visited, for it was the centerpoint for a spell to gain power over the universe, and someone was trying to invoke the spell. The wizard Rakar. James stopped him, but he had to use a great deal of magic to do so, and that is how the Shade was created.

As for the bonding, it's a simple matter of a spellform and a simple merging of the couple's Magick, through touch.

Is that a little clearer? Don't be afraid to ask questions.

Okay, I get it. I understand much better, thank you.

So is Amra the main city for the Om'shan and the Sorceresses? And also, being the Kalv'shan, would James know all the Om'shan?

So is James currently trying to stop Rakar, or has he already stopped him and he's returning home, or what?

Good question...Where is this RPG beginning? And what city are they starting in?

Thats where I thought they where.

Umm what if, Navy, you could send me some info on the Kalv'Shan, the Om'Shan
and their Sorceress', so I could add it and all the stuff already posted here to the first post?
And the names of any important towns, or places that they, the Kalv'Shan the Om'Shan
and their Sorceress', might need to know about or go to.

I've read everything and I think I've got it all down.

I might need a few more details about the connection between the Shade and James, but besides that - just tell me when you need me.

Yep, I read it.

I'm still not sure about a few things... Small details, like if the Shade knows who James is, & if not, what he does know about James, etc. Just want to make sure I know what I'm doing when I make my first few posts.

From the point of the Shade's creation...he knows everything about James, because in essence, he IS James. Think clone, but with memories intact, and he's James complete lawful opposite. So everything from birth to the point of the Shade's creation is in the Shade's memory. Anything James can do, you can do. That doesn't mean you'll know something new James has discovered right away, though you could use it if you saw him use it. Just remember that the Shade will develop into its own personality apart from James, so he could become someone entirely different.
