Welcome Sykans!

If you are playing your PC in Syka in The Winter of 521 be sure and register! I will use the information you provide in your registry entry to plan for Syka Events this season and further your personal plots. It is important to not give generic answers but to be very specific and thoughtful responses.

The Syka Character Registry - Winter 521 A.V.

Postby Oralie on December 2nd, 2021, 11:17 am

Character Registry
  1. Who Are You? Oralie
  2. Age, Sex, Race? 3 (appearing early 20's), Female, Kelvic (ocelot)
  3. Are you a resident or tourist? How did you get here if you are new? A shiny new resident! Arriving on The Veronica from Riverfall on the 2nd.
  4. Tell us one secret your PC has? Oralie has lived her whole life collared and as a servant, so she technically has no secrets. However, the fact that she has run away from her master is a new secret for her, one she doesn't want many people knowing as she is terrified that he will find her again.
  5. Do you need a job or have enough coin to support yourself? She has coin to last her a couple of seasons, but is hoping to earn more as a potter.
  6. Describe your character in a short abstract. Oralie is a timid, skittish young woman, who has very obviously never seen anything outside of the city she grew up in. There are hints though that she could be a confident and friendly person underneath all the twitching.

  7. What are your character goals this season? Settle in to Syka, get some skills up and make at least one friend.
  8. Does your PC have the Syka Recommended SkillsWilderness Survival: E+
    Weapon: C+
    Hunting: C+
    Foraging: C+
    Carpentry: N+
    Construction: N+
    ?
    Nope, have a couple at Novice.
  9. What required skills did you raise last season and to what extent? If you are pending grades, guestimations are fine. N/A - new resident.
  10. If you do not have the required WS skills to go out in the jungle alone, death is certain. If nothing else, it is suggested you work towards raising your WS to Expert. Do you understand this? Yup.

  11. Why did you pick Syka? There is so much potential for any kind of character here.
  12. What is your favorite thing about Syka? I love the whole deal of the settlement. It's so beautiful, yet so deadly.
  13. What does your PC add to Syka? Hopefully pots! Hah, but seriously, I hope she can grow to become a hardworking, core member of the settlement.
  14. How do you want Moderator Involvement in your PC this season? I'd love to discover a Pavena location, but she definitely doesn't have the skills for that. Maybe in finding out about Marcus Kelvic and that sort of thing?
  15. Additional Comments? Super excited to be here. I want to thread with everyone so send me a message!

    Postby Ialari Pythone on January 3rd, 2022, 3:05 am

    Image
    Character Registry
    1. Ialari Pythone

    2. 53 years old, Female, Isur

    3. Are you a resident or tourist? How did you get here if you are new?

      A resident with a cave near the top of Stair-Step Falls (The Cave of Everywhere's Door)

    4. Tell us one secret your PC has?

      Ialari is the first mortal in untold centuries to practice Dominion, the magic of shaping and folding space within the Ukalas.

    5. Do you need a job or have enough coin to support yourself?


      Ialari has enough coin to support herself and acts from time to time to provide various materials to the Panacea.

    6. Describe your character in a short abstract.

      Ialari is, to put it simply, strange. Although she appears much like any other female of her race physically, mentally she is something of a work-in-progress. She doesn't have a good grasp on social constructs of society and tends to lean on philosophical concepts, magical theory and a perspective shaped by otherworldly encounters. She is a mage who is somewhat outside of herself; constantly working to integrate her reality with the rest of existence.

    7. What are your character goals this season?


      Ialari seeks to reintegrate with the world outside of her Dominion. Too much time spent in the Ukalas tends to change a person. To balance that change, she wishes to understand the transformations she's undergone with the context of what it is to truly live. In addition, she needs to increase her survival skills.
    8. Does your PC have the Syka Recommended SkillsWilderness Survival: E+
      Weapon: C+
      Hunting: C+
      Foraging: C+
      Carpentry: N+
      Construction: N+
      ?



      She has all of the required skills just not to the level required as of yet. Some grading may raise a few but more development is definitely needed.

    9. What required skills did you raise last season and to what extent? If you are pending grades, guestimations are fine.


      NA

    10. If you do not have the required WS skills to go out in the jungle alone, death is certain. If nothing else, it is suggested you work towards raising your WS to Expert. Do you understand this?


      Understood and am planning on doing so as soon as possible.

    11. Why did you pick Syka?


      Ialari was around back when Syka was just an idea. Seeing and experiencing the fruits of that idea and the wonder that the location has to offer is a fun environment to write in.

    12. What is your favorite thing about Syka?


      The danger, wonder and potential for grand storytelling.

    13. What does your PC add to Syka?


      Unique magic and knowledge that could work well with the concept of the settlement positioned on top of ancient magical ruins.

    14. How do you want Moderator Involvement in your PC this season?
      Not certain on this, I will have to approach that as the opportunity presents itself.

    15. Additional Comments?

    2. Age, Sex, Race? 23, Human, Male
    3. Are you a resident or tourist? How did you get here if you are new? A New Resident! And one loooooooooong boat trip from Lhavit to Riverfall and Riverfall to Syka finally. At least it was good sightseeing?
    4. Tell us one secret your PC has? The fact that since he was born with a slight limp in his left leg has him worried that he is slowing those down around him. He does not tell others of this but compensates by taking on most of the tasks people ask him to do.
    5. Do you need a job or have enough coin to support yourself? He's going to need a job, he has skills as a mage but the more employable skills are his fledgling Carpentry and Architecture skills.
    6. Describe your character in a short abstract. A curious wanderer and a willing hands-on learner, ready to take any opportunity that comes his way. Polite, talkative, and willing to help.
    7. What are your character goals this season? Settle into Syka, learn to not die in the jungle

    9. What required skills did you raise last season and to what extent? If you are pending grades, guestimations are fine. N/A
    10. If you do not have the required WS skills to go out in the jungle alone, death is certain. If nothing else, it is suggested you work towards raising your WS to Expert. Do you understand this? Painfully aware and afraid
    11. Why did you pick Syka? The exploration, the chance to apply skills in novel ways, and the gorgeous setting.
    12. What is your favorite thing about Syka? The sense of adventure and mystery it brings.
    13. What does your PC add to Syka? Another body, magic, and hopefully buildings and structures!
    14. How do you want Moderator Involvement in your PC this season? I'd need an introduction thread as he's trying to become a resident. Exploration is a bit off till his WS gets improved.
    15. Additional Comments? Excited to be here! And reach out to me on discord or here if someone has some great machinations they want a partner in crime with.

    Character Registry
    1. Who Are You? Naadiya Anvari Lisuli
    2. Age, Sex, Race? 26, Female, Mixed Human. Benshira + Svefra
    3. Are you a resident or tourist? How did you get here if you are new? New resident, arrived by a Svefra ship. She's not entirely sure if they left her because they couldn't bear her anymore or if Syka is important in her search for her father. Either way, her pockets are getting too light to keep going.
    4. Tell us one secret your PC has?She, along with all her sisters, is technically a bastard, though, as far as she knows, with her mother now dead, she is the only person who knows this.
    5. Do you need a job or have enough coin to support yourself? With approval, she will be a weaver working at the Tropical Fever Fashions boutique
    6. Describe your character in a short abstract. With fastidious eyes and hands she hopes to find a lead to her father, not sure of what if anything will be waiting for her when she does. (Gonna train those Intelligence skills! This might be a detective story!)
    7. What are your character goals this season?1- Not starve to death in this strange place with almost no money in her pocket. Find someone who either recognizes her face for its similarity to her mother's, or who recognizes something about the compass she has as the only clue of who her father is. Build up her skills.
    8. Does your PC have the Syka Recommended SkillsWilderness Survival: E+
      Weapon: C+
      Hunting: C+
      Foraging: C+
      Carpentry: N+
      Construction: N+
      ?
      Not All. Only a little wilderness survival (though for the wrong biome, she'll love getting used to that!), and a little weapons
      (bow), she does have a trade skill (weaving) she can use to contribute in some way to the community
    9. What required skills did you raise last season and to what extent? If you are pending grades, guestimations are fine.
    10. If you do not have the required WS skills to go out in the jungle alone, death is certain. If nothing else, it is suggested you work towards raising your WS to Expert. Do you understand this? I do
    11. Why did you pick Syka? To make my PC uncomfortable in a place so starkly different than her upbringing exposed her to. She thinks she is here by chance
    12. What is your favorite thing about Syka? The lack of structural security makes it all very precarious + romantic + mysterious (not to mention the ruins)
    13. What does your PC add to Syka?A saucy Benshiran (newly Mixed) who is going to weave you some pretty interesting fabrics, once she finds out what she can use that grows wild here.
    14. How do you want Moderator Involvement in your PC this season?I would love some creative help in her search for information on the mysterious Svefra that is her father. Is he a masterful seaman and warrior with bulging muscles and a scar from ear to shoulder? Is he a cold, factual man with no room for love in his heart? Is he a cross dresser who collects the teeth of those he kills in a necklace he always wears? Endless possibilities
    15. Additional Comments?Very open to new threads with anyone in town!
