Name: Gildor (Giddy) Fangborn Species: Lizardfolk Gender: Male Age: 37 Physical Description: One the smaller side of his species, about average height for a human. Incredibly skinny, weak muscles. Bright, alert eyes. Reptilian head and scaled body. Wears loose clothing, wound about his body. Missing a few teeth. Personality: A lighthearted fellow, especially social and friendly. He tries to be friends with everybody. Equipment/Weapons: Never had the strength required for a blade, instead he sticks to throwing things, from knives to sharpened boomerangs to star-like weapons. He keeps many of them tucked into his loose clothing, it's hard to guess how many weapons he has on hand at any given moment. Abilities: Keen eyes, spots much. Really good at targeting and aiming his weapons, but lacks the distance to be a truly impressive foe. Backstory: Got separated from his people during a long journey, wandered around the countryside for a while before finding an equally lost dragon. He journeyed with him from then on out, pestering him to no end, but also being a good friend.
Companion
Name: Finn (dubbed so by Giddy, actual name unpronounceable to most) Species: Frost Dragon Gender: Male Age: 49 Physical Description: A pale shade of frosty blue, odd horns sticking out in uncomfortable places for his rider. Personality: Sullen, silent demeanor, behind which hides many dreams and aspirations. He's secretly fond of Giddy at this point, but puts on a front of indifference. Abilities: Just normal ice breath. Also can change the temperature of his skin at will, uses this only to torment his rider. Backstory: He set out seeking the dragon riders a few years back, and ended up wandering the woods. He stumbled upon Giddy, and the fellow took to following him. Finn tolerated him, and together they found the Dragon Riders. They instantly assumed that Giddy was his rider, much to his dismay, but he didn't correct them, and the chatty fellow grew on him as they worked together. Still an odd pair, though.
Let me know if any of this doesn't work, and especially check my ages. I'm not sure how either of these species ages.
All that is fine (and good). Lizardfolk age about the same as humans or orcs. Dragons mature more quickly than humans, but after they are fully matured age very slowly. There is a forest bordering the desert to the northeast, so that's probably where they met. A character named Gildor does exist already, a dwarven messenger who relayed information between Queen Virida and King Dwiarnemfafn during the Falkrion War, but that is not a problem.
Okey dokey, my ages are probably fine then. I wondered where I got that name from. I'll be referring to him as Giddy most of the time, so yeah, hopefully no mix-ups.

Can I join as well is this exclusively for the members you tagged previously?
You may absolutely join! I just tagged the people whom I had talked to and knew were interested.
Excellent, I'll post a bio below. Gotcha.
Rider
Name: Azar Wolfvalor
Species: three-quarters human, one-quarter elf
Gender: female
Age: 17, almost 18 Physical Description: Long, dark brown hair, held up in a ponytail with bangs swept to the sides, warm-toned light skin, green eyes with amber around the pupils, often wears a smirk. Not terribly short in height but not tall either, lean, remarkably strong for a girl her size and quite fast. She dresses in a short dark red tunic, belt with several pouches on it, dark brown pants tucked into darker brown cuffed boots. Also wears a very red cloak.
Personality: Brave, a little reckless, incredibly stubborn at times, determined, kind, sharp-tongued, sarcastic, helpful, not fond of work but will get it done right and quickly if she needs to, loves animals, ambivert.
Equipment/Weapons: Long sword, dagger, several small, hidden knives and blades here and there. Carries a small selection of potions for emergencies.
Abilities: Can forge/black smith whatever, stealthy, excellent fighter, decent aim with a bow or throwing knives, sharper than average senses (from her elf genes).
Backstory: Azar grew up as a spoiled nobles' daughter in a large city, quite content and bratty happy but as time went on and she became a teen, she realized the life of a noblewoman was not for her, nor did she want it. At fourteen she started training daily in secret, hoping to join the [insert name here] knights/warriors when she was ready. After a year of training, she applied to join but was rejected. Azar was determined and kept up her training for the next two years. On her seventeenth birthday, her mother informed her that she would have to marry another nobleman's son to fulfil an age-old tradition. Azar did not like that so she promptly ran away. She got as far as the mountains but was attacked by [insert aggressive race here] and left to smash. A Eurausin found and saved her and became her closet friend over time. Now Azar wishes to use her fighting and riding skills for the good of others by joining the Riders of Paladeen.
Species: Eurausin (which is basically a winged cat, right?)
Gender: female
Age: I don't know, young adult or something
Physical Description: Thick black fur, flecked with gold around her face and shoulders, dark tawny belly fur, black, batlike wings, bright green-and-copper-colored eyes, long bushy tail. Callusthe is of average size yet lean and muscular.
Personality: Um, I dunno, do unintelligant animals have personalities in this sense? For simplicities sake, I'll go with a similar personality to Azar
Abilities: ???
Backstory: Grew up in a Eurausin den with mother and siblings, grew up, found half-smashed human, helped it, becam her companian.

That looks pretty good. There are a few things I wanted to talk about.
Species: Generally speaking, since all of these are different species, you don't go beyond half-breeds. Because of the way genes work, hybrids are usually sterile. However, there are exceptions, so if you really want to be a quarter-elf, I'll allow it.
Backstory: Let's see. I'll say she's from the southwest, an area that I haven't mapped out, so it could feasibly have nobles like you've described. I would make her be from the far west, but that's a little too far and a little to complex a situation. My first instincts for the knights/warriors and hostile race would be the Iron Wolves and Wild Elves, respectively, but I think those are too far away, so they'll just be unnamed until such time as I decide to map out the region.

Again, a couple things to mention.

Age: That works. I don't know the precise life cycle of Eurausin, either.
Personality: It's like how not all dogs (for example) act the same. Nothing complex, just general tendencies.

All right, thanks! I'll start the RP once everything's sorted out with Tigress.

Okay, today's the day. I'll be posting an introduction to the RP for each character and tagging each of you individually in those posts. I do recommend that you at least skim through each other's introductions, however (at least the ones for Winn, Con, and Neko), as each contains some information that the others don't (Winn's has a breakdown of all the current Riders and other people at Paladeen, Con's has a little bit on the culture of the Riders, and Neko's explains the day-to-day situation and schedule for new recruits like your characters). And now, without further ado, let the RP begin . . ..
Edit: The pages worked out almost perfectly, which is something I thought I'd now mention, since it makes me happy.
I'll be referring to him as Giddy most of the time, so yeah, hopefully no mix-ups.
