The two races lived in uneasy truce as while the Mae-bol while stronger and more powerful they where fewer in number than the Seri-bol who also had more advanced weapons and technology. Though primitive the Mae-bol lived under a code of honor and this led them to begrudingly respect the Seri-Bol's technology. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Some say that the Seri-bol began treated the Mae-bol as a second class people and that an open revolt was inevitable. Others claimed that the Mae-bol where savages and would have attacked anyway given the right excuse. Either way when one Mae-bol was born with incredible power he led the others in an open civil war against the Seri-bol who where no match for this legendary being. The ability to transform into what was later called a Seri Mae-bol made the warrior the strongest being on the Planet. | ||
+ | |||
+ | The Mae-bol took the advanced technology of the Seri-bol for themselves and the legendary warrior founded an empire on the destroyed civilization of the defeated Seri-bol. According to myth on his death the warrior, Sondraes the Legendary, was said to have made a great journey in the spirit realm and awaits all Mae-bol warriors who die in battle. Unknown to the Mae-bol the Seri-bol’s greatest scientist Seri Rachi downloaded his consciousness into the Seri-bol technology as a sleeper virus to enact revenge upon the Mae-bol. | ||
+ | |||
+ | During the centuries that followed the Mae-bol attempted to expand out into space and attack other worlds. However the Rachi virus destroyed most of the exploration ships that where sent out. A few managed to survive and they made contact with another race on a frozen world. The Aliens, called the Thaejae by the Mae-bol, where slavers and traveled to the Mae-bol home world to enslave the population. This was the first time that the Mae-bol had ever been invaded and they fought with a ferocity worthy of Sondraes. | ||
+ | |||
+ | After the Thaejae where defeated and driven away the Mae-bol grew overconfident about there fighting abilities and technology. Over the next few centuries as they drifting further away from the teachings of Sondraes and the code of honor they once lived by becoming decadent and corrupt. Infighting among the nobles and constant civil wars destroyed much of the usable technology and structures and the Mae-bol had little resources left to rebuild them. Then one thousand years after the empire was first founded the Rachi virus reactivated and started manufacturing countless Seri-Bol robots to destroy the Mae-bol. | ||
+ | |||
+ | The Mae-bol fought a bloody war but where victorious, however in a last ditch attempt Seri Rachi, an android recreation of the Seri-Bol scientist, used a large gravity cannon to pull an asteroid from space and set it on a collision course with the planet. The last descendant of house Misease, queen of the Mae-bol and direct heir to the bloodline of Sondraes sent her only daughter in an escape pod away from the planet as the rest of her race perished in a fiery explosion. | ||

+ | Animalistic habits reflection on culture. | ||
+ | Anceint Mae-bol will hunt in packs/hunting groups or alone. Their tactics vary, and they prefer active pursuit to ambush. During coursing, one or more Mae-bol will run a herd of prey-beasts, either on foot or in flight, and pick off animals of their choosing. Stalking is usually done alone, a secretive advance on the prey in question until a quick, surprise kill can be made. The Mae-bol posess no spears for throwing from a distance, instead using long-weapon pikes for hand-to-hand during battle, if weapons are used at all. Study shows that in most instances Mae-bol disdain the use of their ki-energy and prefer to engage in close-quarter hunting. A knife is usually the only weapon used by the warriors during a traditional hunt of any kind. | ||

If the animal has long hair, such as mahoks and daryins, one hunter might actually attach himself to the body of the prey, holding on to the long hair with his powerful grip. With the animal thus distracted, another hunter, using bare-handed techniques, rushes in and crushes the lumbar vertebrae, or with a knife slashes open the chest cavity or cuts the tendon of the hindleg. | ||
+ | |||
+ | In modern Mae-bol culture the elite Mae-bol are organized into Houses, their strength based on the bloodline they share to Sondraes. House Misease has the most direct line to the legendary warrior and they rule over the other houses. Beyond that the Mae-bol are organized into classes based on their fighting prowess and bloodline. The most powerful male is allowed to claim several females during his mating cycle each whom he must best in ritual combat. Females are allowed to battle other females for the right to be challenged by the male. It is only during this time that a Mae-bol may change his or her class by defeating all challengers between his or her perspective mates. As Mae-bol mating cycles only happen once every 9 years it is very rare for a Mae-bol to change his or her class, however in times of war even a low ranking warrior can become an elite if they prove their prowess on the battlefield. | ||

The Mae-bol
Over a thousand years ago on a faraway world lived two races, the Barbaric feline Mae-bol and the scientifically enlightened avian Seri-bol. The two races lived in uneasy truce as while the Mae-bol while stronger and more powerful they where fewer in number than the Seri-bol who also had more advanced weapons and technology. Though primitive the Mae-bol lived under a code of honor and this led them to begrudingly respect the Seri-Bol's technology.
Some say that the Seri-bol began treated the Mae-bol as a second class people and that an open revolt was inevitable. Others claimed that the Mae-bol where savages and would have attacked anyway given the right excuse. Either way when one Mae-bol was born with incredible power he led the others in an open civil war against the Seri-bol who where no match for this legendary being. The ability to transform into what was later called a Seri Mae-bol made the warrior the strongest being on the Planet.
The Mae-bol took the advanced technology of the Seri-bol for themselves and the legendary warrior founded an empire on the destroyed civilization of the defeated Seri-bol. According to myth on his death the warrior, Sondraes the Legendary, was said to have made a great journey in the spirit realm and awaits all Mae-bol warriors who die in battle. Unknown to the Mae-bol the Seri-bol’s greatest scientist Seri Rachi downloaded his consciousness into the Seri-bol technology as a sleeper virus to enact revenge upon the Mae-bol.
During the centuries that followed the Mae-bol attempted to expand out into space and attack other worlds. However the Rachi virus destroyed most of the exploration ships that where sent out. A few managed to survive and they made contact with another race on a frozen world. The Aliens, called the Thaejae by the Mae-bol, where slavers and traveled to the Mae-bol home world to enslave the population. This was the first time that the Mae-bol had ever been invaded and they fought with a ferocity worthy of Sondraes.
After the Thaejae where defeated and driven away the Mae-bol grew overconfident about there fighting abilities and technology. Over the next few centuries as they drifting further away from the teachings of Sondraes and the code of honor they once lived by becoming decadent and corrupt. Infighting among the nobles and constant civil wars destroyed much of the usable technology and structures and the Mae-bol had little resources left to rebuild them. Then one thousand years after the empire was first founded the Rachi virus reactivated and started manufacturing countless Seri-Bol robots to destroy the Mae-bol.
The Mae-bol fought a bloody war but where victorious, however in a last ditch attempt Seri Rachi, an android recreation of the Seri-Bol scientist, used a large gravity cannon to pull an asteroid from space and set it on a collision course with the planet. The last descendant of house Misease, queen of the Mae-bol and direct heir to the bloodline of Sondraes sent her only daughter in an escape pod away from the planet as the rest of her race perished in a fiery explosion.
Animalistic habits reflection on culture. Anceint Mae-bol will hunt in packs/hunting groups or alone. Their tactics vary, and they prefer active pursuit to ambush. During coursing, one or more Mae-bol will run a herd of prey-beasts, either on foot or in flight, and pick off animals of their choosing. Stalking is usually done alone, a secretive advance on the prey in question until a quick, surprise kill can be made. The Mae-bol posess no spears for throwing from a distance, instead using long-weapon pikes for hand-to-hand during battle, if weapons are used at all. Study shows that in most instances Mae-bol disdain the use of their ki-energy and prefer to engage in close-quarter hunting. A knife is usually the only weapon used by the warriors during a traditional hunt of any kind.
Pack hunting during the coursing of extremely large prey: While one hunter diverts the animal's attention, one or more other hunters rush in and attack the sides of the animal where vital internal organs are more accessible to inflicted damage. If the animal has long hair, such as mahoks and daryins, one hunter might actually attach himself to the body of the prey, holding on to the long hair with his powerful grip. With the animal thus distracted, another hunter, using bare-handed techniques, rushes in and crushes the lumbar vertebrae, or with a knife slashes open the chest cavity or cuts the tendon of the hindleg.
In modern Mae-bol culture the elite Mae-bol are organized into Houses, their strength based on the bloodline they share to Sondraes. House Misease has the most direct line to the legendary warrior and they rule over the other houses. Beyond that the Mae-bol are organized into classes based on their fighting prowess and bloodline. The most powerful male is allowed to claim several females during his mating cycle each whom he must best in ritual combat. Females are allowed to battle other females for the right to be challenged by the male. It is only during this time that a Mae-bol may change his or her class by defeating all challengers between his or her perspective mates. As Mae-bol mating cycles only happen once every 9 years it is very rare for a Mae-bol to change his or her class, however in times of war even a low ranking warrior can become an elite if they prove their prowess on the battlefield.
Powers, Skills, and Attributes
Powers
Power 1 - Put info on your power here. Be as lengthy as you like.
Power 2 - Not every hero HAS powers, of course, in which case the powers section can be deleted.
Power 3 - Just take everything from the HR tag above the Skills section, up to the "Powers" sub-header, and delete it. You can also edit the Main Header to take the word 'Powers' out of it as well.
Skills
Skill 1 - Skills are the things your character has learned to do, or has an innate talent at doing.
Skill 2 - These skills can be as mundane as painting, to more fantastical things such as enchanting items.
Skill 3 - If your character has no particular skills worth noting, feel free to follow the same directions as shown for the 'Powers' sub-header on how to remove this section.
Attributes
Attribute 1 - Attributes are physical or mental traits, separate from powers in most cases, though possibly enhanced by them.
Attribute 2 - Attributes can be things such as flexibility, or being naturally acrobatic, or good eye-hand coordination perhaps.
Attribute 3 - Again, like the last two, if you have no use for it, delete this section. You can also ALTER the section if there is something missing that you would find more fitting.
Personality and Flaws
Complications
Fame - Luminaire is a well know public figure and does not bother with a secret identity.
Motivation - All Mae-bol enjoy fighting and will seek out strong opponents simply to test the full extent of their abilities.
Phobia - Luminaire fears failure and is not willing to see her friends hurt or killed because she can't protect them. This often causes her to fight alone even if she is out matched or when help is available.
Power Loss - Luminaire's abilities are drawn from her finite Chi energy reserves. Chi is a metaphysical life energy made up of things like vigor, courage, and being in one's true mind. It is dependent on the physical ability of the user and thus is limited by Luminaire's current heath and condition.
Quark - Mae-bol require much more food than humans do, and going to long without eating can drastically effect chi reserves.
Weakness - When a Mae-bol's tail is grabed in combat they suffer the Paralyzed condition if they fail the resist check by three degrees.
Personality
Luminaire is not very bright, while she is very skilled at martial arts and has decades of experience and wisdom she tends to be straightforward in a fight. Her Mae-bol warriors pride oftin gets her in trouble as she wants to fight opponents who are much stronger than her just for the challenge of fighting them and testing her own abilities. She is also afraid of failure, not willing to see anyone hurt or killed because she cannot protect them. Even if this mean taking greater injury by sacrificing herself to protect a fallen ally or to stop someone from being killed. This causes Luminaire to sometimes chose to fight alone even when others are around and willing to help her.
Relationships
Lover
This section is specifically for a spouse, lover, or some other form of paramour. Feel free to use any of the formatting from 'Friends/Allies' below.
Friends/Allies
Put any friends or allies your character may have in here. You may give them descriptions or simply list them. To make a numbered list, simply place a # at the beginning of each new line:
- This guy
- That guy
- Some chick
For a non-numbered list, put an asterisk instead (the lines are optional. Simply remove the HR tags if you wish to remove them):
- This guy
- That guy
- Some chick
Or, you could even use a smaller sub-header for each person, effectively creating a small section on them, like this:
That Guy I Know
Put info on the friend here.
That Chick I Met
And here.
Some Dude at the Bar
Don't forget this one.
Enemies
Put any rivals or enemies here. You can give descriptions, or simply list them. Same idea as the Allies and Friends.
