Well, if you want to start RPing right away, let's presume one of your characters is Yantarlian. Out of the base classes, we don't yet have a Yantarlian Cavalier or Fighter - there's also no Yantarlian Thief or Archer yet, but we already have two of that class considered neutral. Overall, including Neutral and Infernian Army characters, all the base classes have a character for them but we currently have no Great Lord (though Prince Ven will later upgrade into one), Paladin, Sage (though Pearl will later upgrade into one), Swordmaster, General, Mercenary, Barbarian, Warrior, Pegasus Paladin (though Lily will later upgrade into one) or Pegasus Mage (though Zephyr will later upgrade into one). For a Yantarlian you can use from the start, I'd recommend making a Cavalier or Fighter, but if you have a character concept that you want to join the party later than you can try one of the upgraded classes. All Kingdoms are open, but I'd advise taking at least a Yantarlian.
 
Oh, I think I miiiight have the idea for my Yantarlian.
Just hit me.

Might make a Sprite who’s only there because they enjoy the conflict of the war, want a nice frontline view, and believe that the Yantarlians are going to win, so just chose to get that view from their side, instead of the Infernians.
We aren't supposed to hit people here. This a friendly forum.
Also, sounds interesting!

Need more EVIL~? Why didn't ya just say so!

What do you need more, a Yantarlian Fighter, Cavalier, Thief or Archer~?
 
Question. How does nobility work in the Yantarlian Kingdon? What are the ranks and such? I was thinking of my Cavalier being a noble-daughter it'd give a good explanation for Horsemanship and Weapon training.

Also, is nobility restricted to Humans because it's a Human Kingdom?
 
Nobility is like barons and the like, families with a lot of power, riches and influence. And you can definitely make a noble.
The nobility isn't human-exclusive, but the vast majority is human. I wouldn't be surprised if there was a fairy noble, though.
 
Name: Levia Shan Ran Tsovinaire (Young Marchioness/Marquess)
Age: 19
Gender: Female
Species: Fairy
Class: Cavalier
Appearance: Boasting lengthy and luxurious locks of teal blue hair, limpid aquamarine eyes rippling like pools of water and Royal Blue to Ombre wings, Levia can just about be mistaken for one of the Seafaring races. She’s 4’4” when enlarged through magic, and hovers just above 4 inches in her normal form. Her wings are shaped like those of a damselfly and are present in both her forms -though she can at most glide in her enlarged form. She can often be seen in either a variety of blue dresses, ceremonial armors, or her light-weight combat gear. All of her clothing is emblazoned with her families crest which depicts a water Nymph amidst roiling, tumultuous waves, and shrouded in thunderclouds.
Personality: Levia is a proud member of the House of Tsovinaire, one of the relatively rarer houses in the Yantarlia as it is composed of the usually freelancing fairies. At times a demure noble lady, at times a dignified and imposing marquess, and at times a lance-wielding fiend surging across the battlefield, Levia is a girl of many faces, though they all come back to her noble lineage. Believing in Offense as the best Defense, Levia’s armors are purely ornamental and are worn on formal occasions that call for them. She takes pride in her own accomplishments, especially those on the battlefield and can often be rash and abrasive. When off the battlefield, or without the need to uphold her reputation as a noble, Levia can be laid back, lazy and somewhat taciturn. She prefers to ride on the shoulder or head or someone else rather than move herself, and when that isn’t an option, she’ll stay mounted upon her warhorse.
Equipment: Gauntlets, Shin guards, leather/cloth armor
Weapons: Lance, Throwing Javelins
Positive Attributes: Strength, Dexterity
Negative Attributes: Constitution
Backstory: Born to the House of Tsovinaire, a Fairy Marquisate rising through the ranks years ago for their military exploits, the House prides itself of their strong, disciplined descendants. Their doctrine takes the epithet of their nature and turns the dial until it breaks. As nobles of the Land of Sweeping Waters, the Tsovinaire fancy themselves representatives of the surging might of water, and what better ways to sweep across the battlefield than with Cavalry? Every member of the Tsovinaire House is taught to ride horses and wield either the lance or the blade, and they pride themselves in their skills at such endeavors.
Family: Marquessate of Tsovinaire | Father, Mother, 2 younger siblings (twins)
Friends: Various Yantarlian Nobles
Homeland: Yantarlia
Allegiance: Yantarlia
Extra:


Name: Salacia
Species: War Horse
Gender: Female
Appearance: Dark Brown Fur, commonly mistaken as black in low-light, Salacia is Levia’s personal Warhorse and her main means of transportation. She’s a lean, mean grass munching machine, with slender legs and a somewhat brawny figure. She’s a bred warhorse and is naturally stronger than your everyday pack-mule, as most warhorses are. Because Levia doesn’t weigh much Salacia is able to carry a bit of additional load without problems.

She’s often equipped with a silky, royal blue saddle and stirrups customized for someone of Levia’s height.

When riding into battle she dons a much hardier saddle, as well as a few plates of armor. She’s not heavily armored because Levia prioritizes mobility in battle. She wears a helm modeled after a Unicorns horn which can be used for stabbing attacks.

The Edges of her main are dyed the same blue as Levia’s wings.

I did not expect a fairy cavalier. Its unique. I suppose it works?
I kind of want to leave this up to see Eevee's opinion on it before approving it. I kind of thought of the fairies as just being magical. I don't dislike it, but I don't know how a physical fighting fairy would work well....

I'm not too certain about the magic system, but I guess it'd be reinforcement magic? magic to up her stats?

Well, if anything I'll make the character a Dragonborn as eevee suggested.

Positive Attributes: Dexterity and Intelligence - She's quick to think and usually makes good decisions and has fast reflexes
Negative Attributes: Constitution - She's not that physically defensive
Backstory: She was born from an affair of a fairy and her father and was mostly an orphan for most of her life. She grew up in the streets of Canyotopia and learned how to fend for herself after being abandoned by her father at the age of five, only being left with a small iron dagger. She never remembered her father clearly, only a smile at him looking at her mother holding her. Hazel grew up to be skillful with the dagger her father left her and was able to survive. At the age of 13 she left Canyotopia and began robbing civilians hoping to travel to the oasis. She grew a reputation for herself and met a couple of allies. Eventually she got a group of thieves to follow her and by the age of 17 it was almost like an organization. She was much more skillful and eventually turned into an Assassin instead of just robbing people. She became obsessed with money and treasure and targeted rich people, being able to kill them with her gang members, this obsession was mainly caused by her growing up as an orphan with almost nothing. They eventually got enough money to buy property, and hired someone from Canyotopia to supply them with necessities in case her organization couldn't. Partly she got the supplies because she paid them, partly because they were scared of her killing them. The organization however only had females as her friends which she started with were all girls and they made a pact to never allow males into their group.

Equipment: He wears purple sorcerer robes almost all of the time apart from when he is in the privacy of his own home.
Weapons: A tome wielding dark magic spells and trap spells. He also wears an enchanted amethyst ring which boosts his magic powers.
Positive Attributes: Ingelligence; Wisdom
Negative Attributes: Strength
Backstory: He was the son of an abusive alcoholic father and a kind, gentle lady in a small house in Canyotopia. His mother had a divorce and shortly afterwards his father abandoned their family when Kristopher was three and got so drunk he thought a fairy was his ex-wife. When he was growing up he heard stories and learned about his father who used to be a kind man who his mother found in the desert outside of the oasis but turned into a horrible person as alcohol consumed him. He hated his father for abandoning his family and being abusive and didn't feel any remorse after he heard that he died to alcohol overdose when Kristophor was around eight. To take his mind off his father Kristopher learned magic and grew up to be very skilled at it and also being very intelligent. Eventually he began getting into politics. His mother died when he was 18 of a heart attack which caused him to get the rune on his right palm since having the other rune since birth. He became a Sorcerer as the rune somehow greatly magnified his magical prowess and in a couple of years became a member of the council of Canyotopia, the youngest. In more recent years he learned of his sister and was able to figure out by her history that she was related to him, so he tried his best to not bring her to the attention of the government and was thankful she operated outside in the desert as he didn't want his last living relative to be locked up in his nation's prisons even though she was a huge criminal.

I actually changed my mind and decided to make a villager but with an atlas approach:
Name: Ares Stronghelm
Age: 20
Gender: Male
Species: Human
Class: Fighter
Appearance: Ares is moderately tan and has a muscular build. He stands at 6’3’ with messy reddish brown hair and black eyes. He wears a black tunic, and brown shorts and boots.
Personality: Blunt and gruff, Ares is far from noble though respects Yantarlian nobility as their families usually work to maintain the peace in the kingdom. He likes to mess around a lot with his friends but gets serious when it’s needed.
Equipment: Recently got leather armor that his father used to have
Weapons: Carries a bronze axe
Positive Attributes: Constitution & Strength - Working and helping his family as a farmhand caused him to grow tough and bulky
Negative Attributes: Intelligence & Wisdom - Due to him growing up as a mostly poor villager he wasn’t able to get a proper education and learn like others.
Backstory: He grew up taking after his father and becoming a very helpful farmhand and making some friends with people around his age from his village. Ares used to be an innocent kid but as he grew more mature and stern like his father, though not around his friends, but more so towards his little brother and sister. A couple of years ago he decided to test out woodcutting and enjoyed it as he became a woodcutter for his family from the forest nearby. Ares’s peaceful life however changed when the Infernians attacked and captured his village, killing his father who was trying to protect the family. He took his father’s old armor and left with his remaining family to take shelter in the nearby forest along with multiple villagers. The death of his father struck Ares’s family hard and ever since he has wanted to take vengeance.
