Order of the Magus: RU's topic

[[sage]]

Description: A somewhat tall guy with moderately long black hair. He`s always wearing a black shirt with a cracked skull on it, and somewhat loose pants.

Backstory: Wes was an orphan from day one... But lucky for him, the elder of his village took him in, raising him in the art of combat. One day, however, spoiled all of it. Wes had become angry at kids taunting him because of his lack of aggression. Wes`s anger took control of him and he attack the boy with magic. After this event, the people of his village nearly killed him as he narrowly escaped the mob. A few days later, Wes came back and burned the village to the ground. This mostly contributes to his dark attitude.

You've managed to get accepted as a Recruit at the Order HQ in the Kento province. You conviently left out the part where you burned down the village you were raised in, so you might want to keep that under wraps. They had a dorm room available, but as a recruit, its hard to get a private room. You have no roommate assigned to your room at the moment however.


As a Recruit, these are the options open to you.

Mission- Take a mission for cash and to increase your influence and rank in the Order.
Dueling League- Fight 1vs1 battles against other members for titles and rewards.
Travel- Explore the world freely and travel to new areas in search of adventure.
Library: Research any topic that might interest you.
Trainer- Employ a trainer to help you improve and learn new skills. Requires GP and accumulated AP (earned through combat and completing missions or adventures).
Dorm: Rest to recover HP and MP, and store extra equipment and items.

-------------
The Move Silent/Hide in Shadow part of sneak work like this. Whenever you attempt to sneak, you have a chance (20% at level 1 Sneak) to successful Move Silently or Hide in Shadows. If this works, whoever you are trying to sneak by has Zero chance of detecting you. If it fails, you still may not get caught. That depends on your Speed vs their accuracy.

I hope the abilities are to your liking. Tell me if there's anything wrong with how I statted them.

I`ll check the missions.

Missions basically work like this. There's a job office located in the HQ. The On-duty officer will tell you the jobs available, and you pick from the one you think you can complete. Once you get back, report to the Job Office and collect your reward.

A Magus, by the name of Ray, in the town of Kallan has been forced into hiding. The town is on high alert looking out for him. He's been spying on one of the provincal magistrates for the Order. The Magistrate, Minister Davos has been particually active in trying to pass anti-Magus laws and has been very actively rying to prey on people's fear of the supernatural.

Bounty Hunt
-----------
A Magus has gone corrupt and has been using his powers to haunt the road to port city of Crossroads at the Graves mountain pass. The Magus, whose identity is unknown has yet to harm anyone, so The Order does not want him dead, merely captured to receive punishment.

Reward: 100gp on successful capture.

Find Stolen Goods
-----------------
A Thief has made off with a spellbook owned by a Magus by the name of Morn in Kento City. The book has some powerful magic in it, but has been sealed so it can't be read by anyone but the owner or a Magus powerful enough to break the seal. The book is about a foot thick and has a leather cord that wraps all the way around it. The cover depicts a Prince thrusting a sword through the heart of a young maiden.

Reward: 500gp on successful return of the book, as well teaching you some new magic. 1000gp if you can capture the thief.
