As much as I'd like to approve it, they can't exist before time, as it breaks the back story.

Savor, Red Summoner, and UnStellar are Sages. Or were. Hikaru told me they had to have some sort of mythical animal associated with them to be Sages. I didn't like that. So, from now on, these three characters are:

Mazheek

Mazheek are a race of human appearing creatures from another dimension. Mazheek were a temperamental race, and there was always some war or another going on. People just got used to it. Mazheek always have magic ability, and by this dimension's standards, are always pretty powerful. They usually put emphasis on one particular kind of magic, like Summoning or Enchanting or Portal & Pocket dimensions, and have Soul organs nearly indentical to Sages, making people wonder if they're possibly connected to the Sages somehow?

No details?
Seeing the world through a child's eyes is truly a unique experience. It helps you to retrieve that sense of awe, magic and wonder that you lost as you lost your innocence. Tell me, when was the last time that you thought of those childhood dreams? You know, the ones that you used to spend all your time wondering and fantasizing about? Have you forgotten them so easily? Have you forgotten what it felt like to see something for the first time, to see the magic in the mundane? Everyone says you should take the time to 'Stop and smell the roses'. But you should also take the time to look for the fairies, embrace the wind and enjoy the rain. Just once today, stop for a moment and look into that little piece of nature you pass everyday. Perhaps you may see something you did not notice before.

Um... I just had to make a random race to retcon my character because somebody didn't correct when they were made. I'll edit.

The Killer Cows
These Carnivorus creattures scour the galaxy looking for a good bite to eat. Theyl eat anything, human, arlang, imbellis, you name it. they also are not good at spelling. They are considered to be one of the most dangerous races in the universe. They even pose a super threat to the Locarb Lorcar and love eating them because of their all-you-can-eat-buffet numbers. They dont have much technology and the main weopon they use is fire that spews from their utters superchease, wich I will explain later in the Tech forum. They recently have come from another dimension, and are ready for chow. I'm just kidding, this is completely a joke.

Nik. They have a section of the forum devoted for this.
There is only so much pain that can be taken before the bonds and chains of sanity are forsaken
It is in these lonesome times that we reach towards the light sublime
And from that light we pull the resolution of our time
To begin the end and start anew

Enrakni
« Reply #40 on: September 23, 2010, 09:48:05 PM »
Enrakni

   The Enrakni are a race of Autotrophs that live amongst the universe. They all have magic, but not very much. There are none naturally above level 3, but there have been some to find ways of boosting their magical ability higher. Their own magic stays with them their entire life with one exception (which I will explain later) Some specialize in disguise, some in speed. It all depends on the individual and how they collect their energy. They all have light gray skin, black hair, and red eyes. They also have pointy ears, and are always lanky with pointy chins. Other than this they're pretty much human in appearance. As I have already stated, they are Autotrophs, but they do not use sunlight to harvest energy, they use magical energy. There are a few ways they do this.
  The most common way is by sensually touching the magic being and sucking the magic into their bodies. They do this by using whatever skin is touching the magic's skin. Some physical force the magic person to touch them. This rarely works for obvious reasons. Some try to be romantic with the magic user, and this one is usually the most effective. They use magic to appear as another race, and make the feeling of draining magic seem like love. You can't really tell if your in a relationship with one except for a few signs, such as more skin touching you more often.
  This process takes along time to deplete magic and requires a lot of work. It keeps them well nourished, but some don't want to live a life of slowly depleting one's magic. That's why some developed technology that can suck a soal dry in a few seconds. Then you can spend your whole life feeding from that devise. It works on other races without soals as well.
  They don't have much technology, but what they have is suited to their needs. They're homeworld is not populated very much by their people. Only 3% actually live on it, for the reason that there isn't as many magic's on it.

Appro- No, kidding. I'm not staff. I'll tell you stuff to make it better though:

Your race allows for some interesting character development, but not so good on the combat side of things. I suggest raising the max level to 5, and elaborate more on their other abilities, like what kind of magic they specialize in, or how well do they manage magic inside of them? Does it stay with them forever, or is it like a drink; you can refill it, but it's still limited? How about the technology side of things, do they advance in technology every day, or is it more based on magic, like a lot of other races?

Elaborating on other things about your race would help as well, like their appearance. What do they look like? What races might find them attractive for their love-like magic system?

Thar's my advice.

You gave them different colors; but other than that, they're still just a humanoid archtype. I suggest giving them something a little different, make them different from all the other human ripoffs. For example, you could make their average height about 6 feet, or give them a tail. Make them different somehow!

Aetas: (Aetas means lifetime/age in latin, not ripping anyone off here.)

The Aetas are a very sought after race. Why? Because of their powers. You know those old fairy tales, the ones of earth? Where you have your fairy's, your leprechauns, all of your 'little elf like people,' that help out for prices or play tricks and don't? Well, that all stems from the Aetas Race. Where Earth, and other races got the knowledge of them, not many really know, it's speculated that a few let themselves be seen, so as to play a few tricks on the unsuspecting public.

But, that would only be a few jokers, as the Aetas rather like to keep to themselves unless called. Because as I was saying, their powers are sought after. They are, to put it in simple terms. Wish Granters.  No! Don't think for a minute, just because they grant wishes you can now go outside your home and shout "I WISH TO OWN JAPAE!" It's not going to happen. Or, "I WISH TO OWN THE DIMENSIONAL PLANE AND BE THE MOST RICHEST, STRONGEST, MOST POWERFUL AND OMNIPOTENT BEING IN EXISTENCE." ....Keep dreaming. Even if the Aetas had that power, it's against their own personal beliefs to do such a thing, as its a form of interference.

No, the Aetas are not THAT TYPE of wish granter. They grant smaller wishes. Things on a small scale, but even then, the wishes are never how the wisher perceives. Not that the Aetas make them evil, or get them wrong on purpose, it's just the way their powers work. Say you wish for sword? You never specified what kind, and may get a sword larger than you are, or so small you can't even see it.  Which takes us to how you wish.

You must always specify, and be damn detailed. Any slip of the tongue, or wrong meaning in your wish, and you won't get another chance unless you have reason to have.
Aetas grants wishes as they see fit, if you come across one, or if they see it as a wish they want to grant. Some wishes require payment, some don't. It depends on that particular Aetas and if he or she is busy at the time, or if they like you. They can also make the wishes go wrong on purpose if you manage to annoy such a being. After all, they aren't your bitch or slave to force wishes and every desire of your heart out of. They are a sentient race that uses their powers as they see fit.

Ah right, desire, that's another thing. Your wish also stems from your desire. If you wish to have an apple when really you're craving a peach. Guess what? You'll either get a peach or some cross of the both of them. Aetas grant wishes, but desire drives them.

A typical Aetas stands about 2 ft tall, they are pale skinned, and usually are known to have ambient colored eyes. Their hair ranges from any odd color, and never natural colors. And upon their back they have a very chibi-like angel wings, like that of (anime chibi angel/clamp). The Aetas have a variety of personalities, and no Aetas is alike. If they take a liking to you, they may follow you around and grant your every wish as they see fit! Or, you may end up pissing one off with demands (*cough*Hawkeye*cough*) and you'll get one following you, cursing your every desire to something bad.

It really depends.
