Sept Trait: Tash'var has been attacked by ork raiders for years, the last one being only a weak ago. They are practical, courageous and willing to sacrifice for the greater good. (No correlation to a certain planet in my RP, none at all) Nicknames etc. are fine - I don't care probably you should put colors on your helmet like a orange stripe or a purple stripe or so. and then you can identify eachother by the helmet colors. OOC: Regards character creation.... Please everyone write which gender your Tau is ^^
OOC: Alright, I'll give it a try. I really like talky characters in firefight situations, so... Name: Por'Saal Bork'an Sirrah [OOC: Or Saal'Sirrah for short, if I understood it correctly] Nickname: LineColour: Azure Blue Gender: F Sept: Bork'an, a Sept of learning and understanding, dominated by vast academies, among it the greatest military academy in the Empire. Caste: Water Equipment: Water Caste Robe Water Caste Staff Understanding Humans: Terran Body Language and you (A book about humans) Skill Traits: Fluent in Gothic – Saal'Sirrah learned of Terran customs and their tongue during her early training. Basic Understanding of First Aid – One does not live on Bork'an without picking up a thing or two about warfare, even as a non-Fire caste, and so Saal'Sirrah knows enough about First Aid to treat minor wounds, or at least lessen them until competent help arrives. Acrobatic – Growing up in an urban environment with enough space to explore, Saal'Sirrah learned how to jump and climb at a young age, and still retains some of her youth's agility. Skill Flaws: Weak – Even for a member of the Water Case, Saal'Sirrah has not been blessed with physical strength. She has difficulties lifting loads the average Water Caste Tau would lift with ease. Noncombatant – As a Water Caste member, Sirrah lacks training in combat situations – she does not really know how to defend herself correctly in an emergency situation, especially in melee. Personal Traits: Strong Willed – It is hard to distract Sirrah from her goals, and she generally clearly knows what she wants to achieve, and how to achieve it. Cultural Flexibility – As a Water Caste member, Sirrah is naturally more flexible when it comes to adapting to different and alien cultures and societies. While this does not mean she appreciates them all, she at least undestands them on a basic level. Personal Flaws: 'Honest' – It might be because of her strongly academic upbringing, but while a common Water Caste stereotype is that of a humorous and pleasant person, Saal'Sirrah does not enjoy jokes much, and prefers to be on clear terms with those who she is sent to negotiate with. Her life's principle is that of Occam's Razor – the most direct way is usually the best, no need for falsehoods or complex social machinations. While she calls this 'Honest', most who grew up around her prefer the term 'Incredibly Stuck-Up'. Supremacist – Sirrah is of the honest belief that the Tau Empire is superior to the society of many alien races – while she still works honestly in the name of cooperation and unity, she does not take pains to hide her disdain for 'inferior' cultures – such as the Imperium of Man in particular. Caste Trait: Born and trained to become Traders, Merchants and Diplomats, the Tau of the Water Caste are naturally talented and quite eloquent in order to achieve maximum compliance in potential trading partners, or allies. They, however, do not only use these skills for trading, but also to persuade the enemy - or individuals in general - to do what is best for the Greater Good, they also might be able to convince members of the other Castes to do something else with ease, as if their voice was magical. They might be a great tool for a leader, or the worst enemy of a leader as they might be able to turn the own troops against him. Sept Trait: Bork'an is a sept well known for its academies and places of learning, but also of war, for its military academy casts a shadow on its inhabitants, a knowledge that the day will come that its teachings must be used. The Tau of Bork'an are usually well learned and knowledgable, but practically inclined. Saal'Sirrah reflects this stereotype quite well. [OOC: I hope I didn't offend any real tau fan with my meager display of expert knowledge, which is to say, none.]
OOC: Tyranid invasion did not happen yet (Hive Fleet Gorgon) otherwise it looks perfect, that's how I imagined!
OOC: Important Message! The Personality and Skills / Abilities idea gets scrapped due too much complications. Just use the 'usual Urian Sheet' as seen as in other RPs - if questions ask me. If you have a Tau with Personality traits and flaws already - keep him/her that way - it's alright ^^
OOC: I guess there are many Tau fans here, but they just don't want to RP. And well, I think most people'd like to play Fire or at most Air, since they just scream 'Action'. Water, too, to an extent. Earth, well, I think most people just equate them to builders, even if they know about the exceptional Honour-Shas'vre... or something... you know, that member of the Eight.
