Name: Phillip Gabin
Age: 20
Gender: Male
Bio/Goals: Phillip comes from a large family mages, unique in their utilisation of magic for buffs and enchantments over pure damage dealing spells. As such, the Gabin family battle style calls for a build-up until an overwhelming attack can be executed. Phillip weapon of choice is an old axe that his grandfather used. As a member of Gradd, he currently dreams of fighting off Armiel, specifically to avenge the death of his older brother at their hands. Beyond that he seeks nothing other than perhaps refining his skills in battle, such is his single-natured focus on revenge.

I'll buy the Lunar Guard, and go to the recruitment post.

(By the way, I added another shop. The General Store, they'd have stuff like maps and junk there.)

You head into the recruitment office and go upto the recruitment officer.

Officer: Yes, and you are?

(Ah... Well, who needs maps! I shall venture bravely into the unknown!)

"Phillip Gabin, sir!"

Officer: And you want?

Phillip: To enlist...?

Officer: Why?

Phillip: It's just something I have to do.

Officer: Oh... Okay then. Let me get the papers I guess... *Sigh*

He comes back a minute later holding some papers and hands them to you. You fill in the papers and hand them back to him.

Officer: Well... umm... welcome to the army I guess. Theres a ship in the docks that we have, go there and it'll bring you closer to the front lines, okay?

"Thank you, sir."

Guess I'll go check the general store before heading to the docks...

You head into the General Store.

And... thats all I feel like making right now.

Uhm... great? I'll head off to the docks.

You head to the docks and get onto the ship. Once on board the captain comes and speaks to you.

Captain: Okay men, after we set sail we'll be heading off to the port of Carrus, in Nomit. Once there we'll meet up with the rest of our forces there and plan an attack on Armiel. The waters here are dangerous in these times, so in case of an attack by an Armiel vessel, All men are expected to go onto the deck to help fight them off. Is that understood?

All of the soldiers agree with a cheer.

Captain: Very well. We'll be setting sail shortly. There are some beds in case you wish to get some rest in the lower levels, and there are also some merchants on board who are travelling to Nomit, so feel free to look at their wares.

I'll go look at the wares.

You go to where the merchants are onboard the ship. They have their wares set up in a small area on the ground. One has some weaponry and shields, another has some finely made clothing, one has some jewelry and accessories set up, one has various potions laid out near him.

I'll look at the finely made clothing.

Merchant: Welcome, here's what I have for sale right now.

I'll thank him for his time... and go down to sleep. I assume that there's nothing else to do other than shopping.

Yeah, I suppose you could talk to other people on the ship as well.

You head off to sleep. You wake up the next day and head onto the deck. The ship is already at sea, the sun is high in the air, and theres a ship heading right towards you... And it has the flag of Armiel over it. . .

A man heads into the lower part of the ship and shouts for the men to get on the deck. The Armiel ship comes closer and some Armiel soldiers board your ship.
