Just two. You're all set mate.
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.

Heliphleix
« Reply #51 on: October 08, 2010, 11:03:03 PM »
After a few readings and a some time of Rp'ing i have realized that this particular forum is more Empire based rather than Character based, so I need my own Empire, so I now  present you with the main race of the Heliphlein Confederation.

Heliphleix

Appearance
  The Heliphlein race have a classically elven appearance. They have a paler skin tone, and have eyes that come in just about every color that has no red hue. The ore saturated the rarer. Their hair comes in all colors natural to humans, but it doesn't change with aging. Their hair natural clumps like wet hair (even when it's dry). They don't gain muscle or fat in bulk nearly as much as human. The effect is that they all seem thin, even if one is as strong as a pro wrestler. They have pointy ears, shaped with a somewhat straight, rounded point.

Magical Traits
  It used to be that only about half of the Heliphleix had magical abilities, but after a large chainge in government, they started to interbreed with each other less and less. The ones with magical abilities had less children than the nonmagics. At this point there are many more nonmagics, but only about  4/7 are nonmagic.
  The magic is always at the same magic level, no matter the individual. They are passed through generations like the sickle cell virus (but instead f getting both sickle cell genes killing them, two magic genes guarantee magical ability) But the thin is that their magic (which flows through the bloodstream), is directly linked with emotions. The intensity and type of emotion determines the type, and strength of the Magic. For example, rage will give you firey and explosive, but feeling mellow will give them a weaker type of magic. The most powerful kind is torment, which I will go into later.

Other Physical Traits
  Heliphleix live about 500 years apeace, but the developing of rarer or more powerful magic may extend their lifetime. They have very high metabolisms, witch allows them to be energetic most of entire their lives. They mostly eat plants, but they do sometimes eat poultries and other kinds of meat.

Let's compare this shall we?

Heliplheix

Heliphleix appearance: Mainly human, elf ears, don't get fat or muscular.
Paxan appearance: Mainly human, elf ears, purple eyes, females have wings, a physically fit race due to magic energy and connection to surroundings and selves.

Heliphleix magic: It used to be that only about half of the Heliphleix had magical abilities, but after a large chainge in government, they started to interbreed with each other less and less. The ones with magical abilities had less children than the nonmagics. At this point there are many more nonmagics, but only about  4/7 are nonmagic.

Paxan magic: http://shatteredplanes.com/index.php?topic=1812.0

Other shtuff:

Long life spans (500 years). Unexplained why.

Paxans have long life spans (120+ for those weak in magic) due to magic in the blood stream repairing body, destroying viruses and diseases, and generally keeping them in good shape.

Don't even get me started on the whole "race divided" thing. Same race, different strains being at war. Paxans? Bellicus, and Imbellis, at war for their entire written history, only recently at peace.


Denied due to too many resemblances that it cannot be coincidence.

Except for the fact that they have extrime differences in appearance, lifespan, and magical ability making the only simularities that the race is divided, they are mainly huiman, fit, and have some emotion in the magic. Notice how the magical proporties are NOTHING ALIKE! Paxan magic is just magic, but their emotion drives them into battle. EMOTION DRIVES HUMANS INTO BATTLE! My race's magic nature is determined by their emotion, not a hormonal imbalence that gives exces freaking will. Not a simularity.
Also as for the ears, Paxan have curved, almost hooklike ears while Heliophlax have dull ears. Your race is more fairy, while mine is elven (or you could even saay eldar(warhammer 4000 referance)). Either way, its not like your the only person to create a race with pointy ears or human resemblance on this forum, so I wonder why I'm the only one being penalised. Why have you not considered that I, like many, am a fan of elves! My race also has a genaric apearance, that could possably mach other spiecies on this forum, but I am not very fermiliar with it. It's the main reason I made this race in the first place. Not a legitiment reason.
There was never a Helioplan war, they just decided they didn't want to have to dael with each other so much. I came up with the Idea from my Civics and economics class when studying the articles of confederation. Tey are one nation with two states. Not a rip.
As for the magic in the bloodstream, where do you expect it to be? Just randomly placed within the body in every organ? Thats so much mor origanal than in the bloodstream. It even works better with my race than with yours because you know what organ is assosiated with emotion? Did you also know that that organ pumps blood through the body? Another reason that I have come up with, but was going to fill out in the Empire request is that its a defense mechanism against the Enrakni, so they can't have their magic stolen quickly. And I'm not sure you've noticed this, but I don't come on this site very often. Most of the times I have come here was to tell Zak or XANA to Post on UR. Not a rip.
I have spent nearly a week of long bus rides thinking out this race (and to be honest I didn't even know about the Bellicus) and its complications and just becaus you can't see past your own race does not mean that my race reflects it in every way. Yes it has some simularities, but they are farly outnumbered by the differences! I can't belive you are so pumped up and pompus that you cant even consider coincidence and that I have my own creativity, and my own Ideas. What is wrong with you that you cant believe those simple things in a person?

I'd address this issue by issue, but I'm having a sucky day so I'll just say the important part.

Nik, I like you and have liked you from the start. I'm not accusing you of being a rip off, or questioning your creativity or being pompous or any of that crap. It's just, to me, this race, however original it may be, it's too similar to my species for my comfort. I'm not approving, but that doesn't mean the rest of the staff will agree with me. Please don't take this to heart.

Re: Two races I already requested, but wish to change the name of.

Narrikian
Beings like humans but with a lot of differences. First of all is that any alcohol they drink is converted into energy immediately thus making it to where they can't get drunk. Truth Serums as a result of this don't affect them so getting information out that way isn't possible.  Furthermore unlike humans they are indeed capable of magic although theirs is a bit different. Unlike sages the existence they draw in or use must first pass through a membrane around the Propryon which helps speed up the process of changing it into magical energy. But this is done at a rate that will not kill them or anything due to being filled with magic. 

Enhanced Narrikians
Narrikians that have either undergone radical surgery or drank a potion to change them into Elites. There are a lot of differences between the Elite and the regular Narrikians. One such difference is while the Narrikians may be like humans enough for air born weaponry such as the one Grunder used to work, the Elite are not. The animal DNA that has been implanted inside of them blocks that weapon from affecting them and grants them some traits. Speed is increased to 160 mph on land on foot. Flight is now possible since wings that are retractable are on the back. The wings like the bones of the body are more metallic than that of a normal human. Also since their bones are metallic that means that they are stronger physically allowing them to lift more than a normal Narrikian could lift. Further their eye sight is also expanded thanks to Hawk DNA, allowing them to see much farther.  Also they have the same organ called a Propryon  which is what holds their magical energy until they need to use it. Physically they are also stronger than humans. However the process of using any enhanced ability is done by using biological energy to allow them to do the enhanced movements or whatever they need. Eye sight and hearing require none however.

There. I have toned it down now by making the Enhanced Narrikians have to use their biological energy (The energy they need to move run, hike, jog, fight...etc) to power their non magic abilities.

I don't feel like I know much about the race. I know they have an awesome augmentation process, an magical organ, aren't affected by drugs (and alchohol is a drug), and they have some unknown human attributes.

Thunder's approved. Hawkeye, are you just requesting a name change?
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.

Approved, though randomly splicing a animal's DNA into your own genome wont always have the desired affect.
As well, most birds can see a vaster range of the Electromagnetic Spectrum than humans, so that would be...Disorientating, to say the least.

And yes, Nisorin, he was. Hik said he needed to re-request the whole thing, though, I think. Meh.
Do you have what it takes to change your destiny, to defy FATE itself?
Let us test the limits of your abilities, and see if you have the WILL to do what no one else tries.

Beings that are children from two races usually sporting attributes of both races. While they may not be as powerful with the racial attributes of either race, they are stronger with the combined abilities of both races.

Genetic Experiments
Studies into genetics have led to the Narrikians creating a new race based off terran animals and other species they have encountered allowing them to create new creatures. These creatures are called experiments. Some of them possess enhanced strength, others possess elemental manipulation to a degree, but most have their own abilities. Capable of performing magic thanks to many experiments with sage DNA and Osmosian DNA along with Narrikian DNA, these creatures are the new foot soldiers of the Narrikians. When killed however they don't die, but merely melt down into an ooze. If all the ooze is gathered up they can be reconstructed from it, even if a single bit is gathered up they can be reconstructed. Albeit they will not have their memories but that is about it.
