The War between the <strong>House of Weiwyrm</strong> and the <strong>House of Schwarchen</strong>, the two prime cadet branches of the <strong>Royal House of Potentia</strong>, fight for supremacy over the Kingdom. They seek a common goal: <strong>the Throne of Kelna for their Faction</strong>.<br><br>Not too long ago, when the war was waged with sword and shield, <strong>a mage, named Merlyn</strong>, had begun to discover the mysterious forces of the <strong>World of Duel Monsters</strong>, and the <strong>Shadow Creatures</strong> from which they came! Along with her protectorates, <strong>they sealed the monsters in cards</strong>, and were <strong>given to those strong enough</strong> to wield them in their power.<br><br><strong>The two Houses still fight for possession over the Kingdom of Kelna.</strong> The House of Weiwyrm and the House of Schwarchen, now wielding <strong>the mighty Dragons</strong> of their homes, wage war over the Kingdom! Chivalry, Feudal Lords, one man’s greed, and civil wars rage across the land, and need to come to an end!<br><br><strong>You are a fated Duellist</strong>, one of many, whom has been <strong>gifted the chance to use a Duel Monster Deck! </strong>Only <strong>one side can win the war</strong>, so which House shall reign supreme? <strong>The House of Weiwyrm, whom embroil themselves with the All-Mighty Blue Eyes White Dragon? Or the House of Schwarchen, those associated with the Enigmatic Red-Eyes Black Dragon?</strong><br><br>There's only one way to settle this...<br><br><strong>Its Time to Duel!</strong></div><hr><div align="center"><em><strong>How to Post</strong></em></div>You will need two particular items in your IC character posts in order to organise how characters will interact.

				<div class="floatleft">(http://i45.photobucket.com/albums/f75/Morningstarfairy/Lantis.jpg)</div><strong>Name:</strong>Lucian<br><strong>Location:</strong> Kelna Castle<br><strong>Tagged:</strong> Open<br><hr><br>Any looking upon him would likely assume he had money. And that alone made him a target in many places since there were those that made their living just by robbing those that worked. And despite the near by castle, Kelna didn't appear to be any more special than others. Beggars didn't hide from sight, and he was happy to place what gold he could into their outstretched hands, doing anything he could for those that asked for help. Some would say he was foolish, but no king could lord over his people. He had to have their hearts, least they find themselves dragged down and slain by those they thought below them. <br><br>It was a lesson many had never taken to heart. A ruler looks down on those not at his level, because he was able to. And often his disdain would be his downfall. The people would eventually rally, rise, and overwehelm them. But like they would put someone else in charge, and like the tide, would receed and return to life as they knew it. And for a while the ruler would remember this lesson. But for better or worse was anyone's guess.<br><br>Lucian looked at a small girl begging up at him with her hands out stretched. He placed a gold coin in her hands and sent her off, eyes locked on her. When one man tried to step forward and take the coin from her, Lucian shot forward. He grabbed the man's wrist, frowning down at him.<br><br>"Anyone would be ashamed of you, attacking a helpless child." he said, frowning.

				<strong>Name:</strong> Malchovitch Pain<br><strong>Location:</strong>: Great Plains<br><strong>Tagged:</strong> Open<br><hr><br>Ah, the open fields of lush, green grass, always a light breeze to make seem inviting and relaxing. Truly, it had to be the most peaceful place to rest one's head on the ground. Well, that was when there wasn't a war going on upon it, anyway. Even so, Malchovitch Pain found himself lying on his back against the grass, arms folded behind his head as he looked up at the clouds, forgetting for a while that he was in a war. Ever wary, though, he kept a dagger close to his side, and another sheathed at his side, though he had hoped not to find a use for them. <br><br>While watching the various clouds drift by, his mind reflected about his status and duties to house Schwarchen. He was a warrior, first and foremost; he would never forget that. Yet what else was he? He liked to have fun, for one thing, and he liked to at least attempt to woo the ladies, though he never truly did put much effort into it. Was he a killer? Sure, he had to do it before, but they were always criminals within his country's own borders; did that count? Most people seemed to think not, but it was always up in the air for him. He had to think then and there whether or not he truly would plunge his dagger into that of a Weiwyrm soldier if he had to. Perhaps, as a warrior, that was not his choice, but the choice of a superior. <br><br>Whatever the case would be, Malchovitch figured that he should ponder about it at a later time, lest he brood for too long and forget where he was. Closing his eyes for just a few moments, he opened them back up, and swore he saw the figure of the Red Eyes Black Dragon within one, but maybe it was just his imagination. Slowly, he sat up and bent his knees, resting his arms upon them as he looked down at the dagger on the ground next to him. He didn't quite want to rise to his feet, as he didn't have anywhere he was ordered to go, and relaxing just felt too nice.

He let go of the man's wrist as the girl vanished. He stood there, watching the strange woman before he saw the symbol. The emblem of Schwarchen, the Black Dragon. A powerful beast, but more could be found. He stood there, one hand lowering to the deck at his hip. He wasn't afraid to die for his beliefs, nor was he afraid to duel. But here where others might get hurt was a different story. He frowned and glanced off to the side from the corner of his eye. He lowered his hand, relaxing his posture as he stood there.<br><br>"The House of Shwarchen is no better than Weiwyrm when it comes to the innocent. I have seen villages burned to the ground by your group. And similar atrocities by the other. What right have either house to do this to the people? Lords are in place to serve the people they rule. Both sides have forgotten this." he said, calmly. "If you're here to fight, you'll have to wait until we're away from the people here. I wont have harm come to them."

I thought both sides were fighting to take it for themselves." he said, quirking an eyebrow. "My name is Lucian. And fated to fight or not, my lady, I am glad to meet you. But I must ask. Why do you fight?"<br><br>He needed to know why she fought, for some reason. It was nagging at him, something that he needed to know about a perfect stranger. But the 'Fated Duelists' would decide the final battle. They were the ones to turn the world around from war to peace, and yet they were all fighting among themselves. They fought for both sides, and fewer still stayed out of the noble's hands. Sure he didn't have the funding they would but he was gifted with his skill and cards.
