Having retreated countless centuries ago to a subterranean world (Sub-Terra) the people who dwell in this world of perpetual darkness have forgotten why or how they came to be here. Only that they are now under the cruel yoke of the Emperor and his soldiers.
Dissidence among the people has always been high and as life becomes harder amidst the mazes of rusting metal work and forgotten ruins that were once constructed by their ancestors the people look for hope.
The Emperors sole surviving Son has also become dissatisfied with his life and now seeks to gain the throne gathering followers among his father’s armies and those who wish to be free of his rule.
There are however those who believe that the rule of the Son will be no better then that of the Father and seek to end the hold of the Emperor and his ilk for all time. They are the Rebels led by Maximus.
In this word everyone possesses magic but not all can harness that power. Those who do are known as Mystics and understand the workings of the ancestors technology which combines both machinery and magic.
Recently there have been discoveries. relics from the ancient past that bind themselves ot those individuals unable ot harness the magic within themselves. weapons and artifacts that grant abilities beyond imagining. some of which can be used again and again while others are temporary at the very least. The temporary relics are common enough but those that are reusable are the most sought after and also the most dangerous. Those that are incompatable with these relics are destroyed as they drain them of both thier magic and ultimately thier life.

Relics/Artifacts
Taken: Lore Multi-Sword—Several blades in one. Each can be ejected and used individually or left together to create one larger or powerful blade.
Energy Lance—The energy lance emits high energy discharges. While together the weapon can allow the wielder to attack head on utilising the full power of the spear to devastate enemies. But when divided in half they can be used to create an electrical cage that electrocutes a group of targets.
Taken: Kaisar Gravi-Gauntlets—Gauntlets that harness the power of gravity and can alter it at the users discretion, altering the strength of gravity upon individual objects or an entire area.
Elemental Bow—The Bow uses magical energy to create arrows of varying elements. They are raw power and can only be drawn by the one who wields the bow without harm.
Taken: Mickenzy Aegis Shield—The shield creates a barrier that no physical force or magical energy can penetrate. While in use however the carrier is rooted to the spot. The shield can only be maintained while the carrier is stationary. While inactive it collapses in and rests upon the wielders forearm like a bracer.
Gunblade—A rare weapon from the technological civilization that utilizes both modern and martial arts. The two parts of a gunblade work in perfect harmony, the normal bullet from the barrel heating the blade to extreme temperatures for a short period of time. If loaded with magical shells, the fired bullet will drain the energy out of whatever it makes contact with, allowing the wielder to cut them down more efficiently.
Float Unit—A pair of ordinary looking sneakers that will transform into whatever footwear the wearer prefers. The Float Unit is an amazing piece of technology that combines magical power with a sophisticated dash of science, enabling the wearer to fly for a specified period of time.
Stealth Mask—This ancient relic allows one to vanish from sight and move as if they were a ghost by bending light. One however must be careful for while it grants invisibility it cannot silence a careless footstep.
My Character
Name: Gala ‘Grunt’ Wrightsmith
Age: 26
Gender: Female
Appearance: Average height and well muscled because of the work she does. Her skin is also a light brown colour which is uncommon in Sub-Terra because of her close proximity to the furnaces when working with metal not that its noticed much what with the grease, soot and dirt that is generally smeared all over her. Gala has wine-red hair with lighter streaks of red and gold through it. Her eyes are black. Gala generally wear a pair of grey overalls held up at the waist by a heavy leather belt upon which she carries her Maul. The bib over her overalls is generally left undone. She wears a black singlet under that and her boots are thick and heavy. She also wears a pair of heavy gauntlets which have the most peculiar embossing across the supple black leather and are held onto her arms by band of metal around her upper forearms.
Faction: (To be decided)
Skills: Mechanic/Smith
Relic: Gravi-Gauntlets
Off-hand Weapon: Maul
History: Gala has always liked working with the machines that were left over form the ancestors. As such she learned everything she could about them until it became apparent that she was proficient in their workings. To better adapt herself for her work she also learned how to shape the metals that created their bodies and also so she could make any parts that were not necessarily there. In smithing standards she is still considered a Journeywoman and has not yet the skills of a master.
Other: Gala has a temper. She doesn’t let it go often but when she does people have learned to duck for cover. She is called ‘Grunt’ because she is always doing the gruntwork.
