Name: Whisper

Gender: Neutral

Race: Past Echo

Lineage: Echo

Age: Ancient

Alignment: Chaotic Good

Religion: None

Grace/Racial Powers: Whisper is a Smoke Echo. Naturally, it possesses and affinity for smoke.

Talents/Skills: (With eons of training, Whisper has managed to learn to transform itself into smoke, making is the same tangibility, and toxicity. A truly deadly ability. It is also a competent swordsman.

Weapons/Specialized Tools: It uses a sword, similar to the Echo's.

Weaknesses: As there is no exact opposite to smoke, it will not suffer one of the regular Echo weaknesses, however, due to the fact that smoke is a rare element to find in the wild, it can have a hard time replenishing itself, necessitating the sparing use of it's power.

Brief History: Whisper arrived on the scene shortly after the Battle of Lumbridge through a rift that it had discovered on a far away world. Shortly after it arrived, the Echo was confronted by the Crimson Templar, and they attempted to 'cleanse' it. Naturally, it fought back. Soon, it came upon several Kobolds, fleeing Lumbridge, being chased by Templar. Naturally, it assisted them, knowing that the Templar were a mutual enemy. There, it met Gorondo, who proceeded to explain the situation. Soon after, it came to the border of Kandarin, where it met up with the Echo. The two agreed to join forces against the common enemy. And so, a beautiful friendship was born.

World Bio

Name of your World?: Gaia

Type of World?: Post-Cataclysmic, In Recovery

General Environment of World?: Gaia is a world of vast desert, rocky outcroppings, and sprawling forests. Ocean occupies fully 75% of it's surface, and it has a rich ecosystem of diverse ocean and land-bound life. It's ecosystem was artificially introduced in ages past, and it's current species are all descended from conventional terrestrial species. It is perhaps remarkable, in that it still has horses which are largely unchanged. The vast strech of desert allows any potential visitor to witness the vast scars the land of that world bears.

Races?: Humanity is the only sentient race on that world.

Size of World?: Large

Brief History: Nearly two thousand years ago, Gaia was settled by humanity. Who these first settlers were, how they came, and the lives they lived are largely lost to history. What is known by some of the most accomplished scholars and some of the most powerful priests and kings is that at some point in the past, the original cultures went to war with each other, wielding weapons of great power which cannot be reproduced by current means. These artifacts are still highly prized, for they can turn a slave into a conquering king. In the end, the original cultures were completely destroyed, and the planet's landmasses suffered mass upheaval. By the time primitive civilization returned to the world, it was a very different place. Where mechanical forges once churned out molecular-perfect blades and spears, now it was a world of simple steel and bronze. In a peculiar twist of fate, Gaia's current civilizations are by and large analogous to those of mankind's early origins. It is a world of city-states and empires, federations and tribes.

In fairly recent times, one such small kingdom named Arahnabad fought against the vast slave-armies and flesh-wrought abominations of the Empire of Aten. Led by their young king, the Janissaries of Arahnabad and their elite cavalry routed army after army, before laying siege to the capital of Aten. The nature of what occured in the battle at the palace is unknown, but the King of Arahnabad disappeared and Aten crumbled.

Several months went by after the fall of Aten, until Gaia began to experience rift activity.

Name: 'Whisper', Janissary of Arahnabad

Gender: Male

Race: Human

Lineage: Fire Elemental

Age: 29

Alignment: Neutral

Religion: N/A

Grace/Racial Powers:
Wrath of Internicio: Whisper's body has changed fundamentally due to exposure to his weapon, Akuma. Whisper's eyes have the ability to grant him perfect nightvision on activation through willpower. When doing so, his eyes appear to burn like embers, and this effect may potentially be seen in darker conditions. In addition, he is naturally fireproof, to prevent accidentally killing himself. It also causes his body to generate fairly absurd amounts of bio-electrical energy, which is used to feed his weapon.

Talents/Skills: Whisper is a preternatural archer, and is capable of striking virtually any target within range of his weapon. While melee is not his strong suit, Whisper is fairly competent with his scimitar.

Weapons/Specialized Tools: Akuma, Internicio's Wrath

Weaknesses: Whisper lacks the capacity for articulate speech. His abilities are greatly reduced, should he be seperated from Akuma. In addition, Whisper lacks experience with the overwhelming majority of sentient species and his reactions may be wildly fearful, or he may drastically underestimate the danger.

Appearance: Whisper is a man at about 5'9, with a naturally bronze complexion and dirty blond hair. He maintains a veil over his lower face at all times, to hide a gruesome disfiguration he received at the hands of bandits, when he was young. His mouth is largely composed of burn scars, and his teeth show through missing pieces of lip on the right side of his face. His tongue is also similiarly damaged, and he cannot speak without considerable difficulty.

Brief History: (Cont'd)

(Cont'd) Brief History: The man who became known as Whisper was born in a small village, in the kingdom of Arahnabad. Unfortunately, early on in his life the royal family of Arahnabad, the Algerns, were betrayed and sold into slavery. The years following the fall of the royal family saw the nation of Arahnabad fall into near-anarchy. The man who took over control of the country began enslaving and selling his own people to the Empire of Aten to the east, and state-sponsored bandits plagued the countryside.

Whisper's village was one of the many that were ravaged by bandits. The young man was brutally tortured with flames, and permanently disfigured. His family did not survive the bandit's attentions. The years after the scouring of his village saw the young man wandering from town to town searching for a home. He was never able to find an adoptive family due to his obvious disfigurement, and when he came of age he enlisted in the military of Arahnabad. His aptitude with a bow became apparent early on, and he was able to become an elite janissary early in his career. His skills were sharpened in border clashes with Esalia, Arahnabad's northern border. When Judas Algern, the rightful king reclaimed his throne, Whisper was of the first to swear his fealty to the new king. Seeing his dedication and skill, Whisper became the first vassal of the fledgling king. His first royal assignment was to guard the personages of the household of the king's friends, a newly married couple and their adopted daughter. Whisper bonded with the child quickly, and stood watch against all manner of harm. More than once did his nighttime vigil foil the efforts of foolhardy bandits.

One day while he was watching over his young charge, the rift opened. Whisper was left with little choice but to go through to the other side, fighting the otherworldly creatures that were trying to enter his world. He would make sure that his charges were safe, no matter what.
