    I can see where Aly's open disbelief is liable to get her in trouble.

    Name: Joe Joestar

    Race: Human

    Age: 17

    Gender: Male

    Appearance: He's about six feet tall, short brown messy hair, pale skin, brown eyes, thin and not muscular at all, he wears a white hooded robe with intricate red markings on the back, and red on the trim of the robe, under the robe he wears a plain black shirt, pants, and shoes, around his neck is a golden pendant, it has an intricate design around a blood red jewel, beneath it are what appears to be wings, melding into the design and spreading up to the middle sides of the pendant.

    History: He's a teenage boy that lives with his family. While he doesn't have that great of a physical condition, but his magical and intellectual prowess makes up for that. He never made friends or played with any other children, he was always by himself, just day in and day out he would constantly study and try to make his skills far more powerful and extend his knowledge of the world. He likes to think that his magic can go up against most common Ifrit, but he tries to keep a level head and stay modest in order not to get himself killed, obnoxious arrogant fools tend to get themselves killed, that's his motto anyway. He holds a bit of resentment toward his parents with their choice of names, they couldn't have gone with Joseph, or Joey, but they just go with Joe, so then they could give him a stupid nickname, Jojo, so he tends to keep his last name hidden from people so then he wouldn't be cursed again by that nickname. His mother is a jeweler and also skilled with magic, to the point of being able to enchant items, mainly her jewelry but she does do enchantments on other things to make a bit more money on the side. His father is a skilled blacksmith, he was usually disappointed that Joe had taken on more of a scholarly attitude instead of a physical one, though his mother was more ecstatic about it, though she became more protective over me since I couldn't defend myself with a weapon or just my own two fists. One night, against his parents wishes, he ran away from home in search of the God Speaker, and to find the truth behind the mystery of what happened to make this world this way beckons to him. If he could solve it then maybe, just maybe he could find a way to help everyone and restore this world to its former glory.

    Reasons for Finding the God Speaker: He feels this journey to find him might gleam light on the mystery of what happened to the world, but if he does find the God Speaker, he'd probably try to make things better at the temples, and if he did find some way to bring the world back to the way it once was then he'd fund to create cities, let temples just be what they were supposed to be in the first place, a place of worship.

    Ability:

    The Laws of Physics Mean Nothing!:

    A character able to make the values of distance, height, weight, etc. insignificant and apply that to the real world. With this he could remove the weight of a blade attacking him, making it less dangerous, remove the height or width of himself bypassing physics and even while staying at the same he could magically pass through small passages. Destroy the distance between targets, as thus no distance would had to be traveled, hence he would immediately move to the other location. Though he cannot use it too much, it puts great strain on his mind, causing headaches, even causing him to faint if he uses it too much and puts too much strain on himself, though before he can use the skill he needs to figure out the distance, weight, height, etc. before he can make it meaningless for himself.

    Eathers: Althea, Nox.

    Spells:

    Redemption:
    An Althea healing spell that can heal one person and heal most afflictions, but requires a chant in order to use it. 'Redeeming light which shines so bright, please lend me strength to help one fight!'

    Null: A Nox spell of destruction that can cause minor damage and inflict random afflictions to one person, sometimes even nullifying magical protection or augmentation created through a spell, requiring a chant. 'As black and shadow tie together into darkness, make one's life into nothingness.'

    Equilibrium: A mixture of Nox and Althea, a cloud of darkness surrounds the enemy(s) and determining on luck, objects made out of Althea appear around the cloud, it could be as useless as random junk, or as useful as blades or bullets, then slam into the darkness, attempting to harm or kill the enemies within, as the Althea pierces through the darkness it becomes more solid, causing more harm than it would outside of the cloud, where more light is present, it requires a chant to cast it. 'Lady luck smile upon me, aid me with both light and dark to smite my enemy!'

    Twilight Barrier: A barrier surrounds caster and nearby allies, it reflects 1/4 of damage from a spell, though it ricochets off of the barrier once, going off in a random direction, though if it's a Nox or Althea spell it reflects 1/2 damage and flies back at the caster, it can take a lot of damage, though it stops the caster and allies inside of the barrier from moving from that spot, though allies can still cast magic inside, but the caster will be unable to.

    Angel of Death: The caster gains the ability to fly for a short amount of time, from the caster's back concentrated beams of nox and althea energy flow from the caster's back, as though they were wings, the beams hone in on opponents, upon contact with a physical object the beam explodes in a blast of nox or althea energy, the spell needs a chant in order to be used. 'The circle of life begins and ends. I am an angel and the harbinger of death!'


    Equipment:

    Grimoire: A large leather bound book, he keeps it to himself and never allows anyone to take a look of what lies within, it seems to give him a slight boost with his magic.

    Robe of Fire: An enchanted robe, while it doesn't give much physical protection, it gives some protection to fire and heat, making traversing through the desert much more bearable and gives him a slight upper hand in battle against enemies that favor using fire based attacks, it cuts down a fire based attack about 1/4 of it's full strength, a gift from his mother.

    Leather Gloves: A pair regular of leather gloves, gives decent protection to his hands when grabbing sharp or hot objects.

    Gold Pendant: A pendant, a gift from his parents, he's had it since he was born, they created it themselves, it's the only one like it in existence due to the engraving on the back 'To our precious son, Joe, keep this close to your heart always, we'll always love you.'

    Just going to add Leon's CS here for convenience.

    Name: Leon Lawrence Levant

    Age: 17

    Race: Incubus

    Gender: Male

    Appearance: He's about six feet tall, short black messy hair, lightly tanned skin, red eyes, he has a pair of small black horns, a set of black leathery wings, and a long black tail with a spade on the tip, thin and lightly muscled, he wears a black shirt, black shorts, and black shoes, around his neck is a golden pendant, it has an intricate design around a dark blue jewel, beneath it are what appears to be wings, melding into the design and spreading up to the middle sides of the pendant.

    History: He was abandoned by his parents when he was born, he was left on the doorstep of a struggling merchant. They didn't have very easy lives, they could barely eat, the merchant had been very unlucky, he was screwed over by his business partner. He stole all of his suppliers, most of the profits and inventory he had, then spread vicious rumors about his wares and business practices. He basically had been crippled in his business ventures, barely anyone would supply him, and the ones that did charged him ridiculous prices for inferior products that hardly anyone would buy. On top of that he had another mouth to feed, and worse it was an incubus, people looked down on him even more for associating with demons. Even if the demon was a child left in his care, the merchant had always wanted a child, but unfortunately was sterile and couldn't have children, so he took this option gladly to have his own son, but read read off of the pendant that was left with the newborn child, he'd respect the name that was given to the child, but decided to give him a middle name, a name he always wanted to give his own son, Larry, but thought he would make it sound more refined and went with Lawrence.

    Over the years Leon did his best to support him and his step-father, either by doing odd jobs, or working in the middle of the night, doing what he did, enjoyed best... we'll leave it at that, thanks to Leon they managed to get back on their feet a little bit, enough to get a foothold, Leon managed to actually drive some business into his step-father's shop, and even got a decent supply line that gave them decent inventory at a decent price, since he had managed to get his step-father on his feet, he decided that he would go and find the God Speaker.

    Reason for Finding the God Speaker: He wants to find his true birth parents and find out why he was abandoned, if he gets the god speaker he can give his step-father enough money to be able to live comfortably and get his business back in order completely, the least he could do for him for raising him all those year, the rest would no doubt go toward helping him fund his search.

    Ability:
    Seduction- He uses this ability to seduce people into bed with him, though it does have a decent use in battle, he can sometimes make weak willed enemies do whatever he wishes for a little while, including attack his allies, take off their armor and lay down their weapons, or throw themselves off of high places or into hazardous ones.

    Eather: Charon, Nox.

    Spells:

    Inferno- This spell is a high concentration of Charon Eather released upon a single point, said concentration is so condensed that it explodes and covers the surroundings in fire and thus engulfing the victim into it, it can be shot manually or fired by the Eather Cannon, though it takes time to charge with the Eather Cannon, but the power is increased, though it doesn't explode when fired from the Eather Cannon, it will directly hit a target and cause the effect, when fired manually it will be more spread out rather than focused with the gun, when Hell Fire has been used the power increases.

    Transformation- A spell that uses Nox, He can make himself look however he wants, he usually uses it to make himself
    Hell Fire- A mixture of Nox and Charon, this spell engulfs the user in an armor made entirely made of Charon and Nox, deadly Charon Eather sustained by a Nox armor that prevents damage to the own body, it also creates a multitude of weapons made out of either Nox or Charon as well.

    Equipment:

    Eather Cannon- A flintlock pistol that uses bullets made out of Eather, on impact the bullets explode in the Eather that the bullet was made of.
    Golden Pendant- A golden pendant with a blue Jewel in the center, in the back it's engraved 'Please do not be angry with the world, please live as happily as you can, I'm so sorry my darling son, Leon'

    I'm pretty sure I was given the okay to post :)


    Name: Ketka Du-Vox


    Race: Juhauwan


    Gender: Female


    Appearance: Ketka has caramel coloured hair that is long and is loosely braided. She has coco eyes, bronzed skin and ears pointed downwards. She is five, six in height.


    As one of the creatures known as the Juhauwan, Ketka has the ability to change shape, her second form a large cat like creature, with long spindly legs, a long split tongue, a human face and monkey like hands rather than paws.


    Attire: black tight fitting top worn with loose white pants, tough leather boots and a light wine red cloak with gold embroidery along the hem.


    Personality: Theatrics runs in the family and Ketka knows how to draw a crowd for all the wrong reasons. Ketka is bossy, rowdy, and often the cause of trouble. She struggles to take things seriously, takes most of her jokes way further than need be, and makes sure people know exactly what she thinks of them.


    History:

    When the Juhauwan God Speaker vanished, the last city of their nation also disappeared.


    Born to nomads the closest thing Ketka has ever had to a home is the city of Mehtt, a seasonal haunt for performers.


    It was during ketka’s time in Mehtt, that the small performing troop her family travelled with came across a man who proclaimed to be a God Speaker called Bradnt. At first the man offered to fulfil wishes in return he asked only that they gave him small scraps of food.


    The wishes were simple ones, and slowly the man asked for a larger sum and so the group asked for bigger wishes. Bradnt began asking for children and greedily the troop gave them to him. The man grew fatter and his wishes began to crumble, gold became dry clay, water became rotting blood.


    The people demanded an answer for the man’s failure and Bradnt told them he needed an offload to make sure the spells stayed in place. He wanted a young woman they gave him Ketka to be his personal slave.


    Bradnt manipulated the troop, laughing as they destroyed one another – Ketka watched on without hope. When the gold turned to dirt once more, the only person left to see it was Ketka. Bradnt left in search of other victims and Ketka escaped whilst they travelled.


    She despises talk of false God Speakers and has a great hate for street performers.


    Reasons for finding the God speaker: Ketka cannot forget what happened in the back alleyways of Mehtt, she remembers the feral yellow eyes of Bradnt, she recalls each lie, and each cruel thing he did to Ketka – to her family.


    She has to things she wishes for and in in constant conflict with herself over which she should ask for. Should she ask for Bradnt so she can slay him for his sins, or should she find a way to forget everything that has come to pass?

    Ability: Eather Nox


    Spells

    (1) Decay: for use on objects like metals, woods, plants, and anything else that can decline over time but is not human. This is not a swift spell rather it takes anywhere between ten minutes to an hour or more to rot and object.

    (2) Intra Sominiun , attracts swarms of insects from beneath or above the ground and suggests that they should try a free dinner of flesh and eather

    (3) Celvelox Tap making the shadows a viable substance, they wrap about her opponents or slow their movements.


    Equipment: Leather wrist guards, black leather hauberk that is studded with silver. Leather leg wraps.

    Health :7


    Speed: 7


    Power: 4

    @mmarage
    Fox's character already picked up the collapsed man and was carrying him. I think my post may have caused some confusion, since it was chronologically out of order. Let me clarify:

    Altair (Pheonix's character) collapsed outside the city
    Tsubael (my character) witnessed it, but kept walking
    Shae (Fox's character) came a little while later and picked him up.

    Having Joe summon the guards to pick him up conflicts with Fox's post. You could probably edit your way around it. (i.e. Joe healed him, then walked away to find the guards and, when they returned, found Shae carrying Altair.)
