Okay, preface; I have basically forgotten where I was going with my old RTD, plus all the old players are probably not here any-more, but if they are, they get priority to join, so I am rebooting, and changing how it works slightly, trying to learn from my mistakes

It is 2 years after the events in After the mageocalypse, the world has started to recover and old technologies are more frequent. It is not all good news however, there are still plenty of areas still corrupted with dangerous chaotic energies, with mutated and twisted ... things roaming around, aggression in their eyes. There are of course still brigands and others trying to exploit the lack of policing and civilisation, while recovering, is coming back in bubbles and pockets, unconnected with each-other, as the infrastructure that used to exist took a long time to construct.

It is this world that you are part of, you live in one of the more successful of the pockets of civilisation, where the different races and species of sentient life live more or less in tolerance with each-other, but something threatens you're new start, and you have been chosen to do something about it.

Rules now complete I will be taking up to 8 players, but will not necessarily wait for that many depending on how long applications take

Spoiler: Rolling (click to show/hide)

Rolls are in general D10s with the usual 1 is massive failure(you also don't get you''re usual bonuses if you roll a 1) and a 10 being awesome and usually doing too well, many rolls, especially in combat will be opposed, success being compared to the other roll, in other cases the threshold for success will usually require a GM (read me) Judgement call, but I will try to keep consistent.

Spoiler: skills (click to show/hide)

You have 70 skill points to spend, each skill point gives you a 1/10 chance to gain a bonus to related rolls, with it rolling around every multiple of 10, for example, 15 will give you plus 1 and a 50% chance of another +1.

Skills come in skill group, within each group you can sacrifice (for a roll) multiples of 10 to give that many 50% chances for an extra 1 to another skill in that group (for that roll), this is done automatically for any roll that only uses one skill, for example, if you have 33 in swords and you attack with an axe, you can sacrifice 30 in swords for the roll, and gain 3 50% chances for an additional 1. Since this roll has no use for swords, then I will make this adjustment automatically

Spoiler: magic (click to show/hide)

The arrival of Magic is what caused civilisation to mostly collapse in the first place, and it tends to mess with anything that is electronic, making the electrons move randomly and unreliably

Now on to how each type of magic works

Use the ambient magic energy of the world to manipulate the world around you, however it is hard to use any finesse with world magic. Concussive waves, fireballs, etc are world magic, you an be creative.  If the magic level of the location is 0 or less after any world magic, there will be dangerous consequences, scaling with how much energy was used recently. The effect's epicentre is centred on the mage who did it everyone else get's a roll to avoid or mitigate the effect.

Using the magic is a 3 part process, and if you want to trade between the skills, tell me when you say what you want to do.
The 1st stage is the draw roll, This is the amount of energy you draw from the world, you can limit this to a number if you want, but remember this is also how powerful you're magic is.
The 2nd is the control roll, it affects how well you do what you want to do, if it is an attack, it will typically be this roll that is opposed
The final roll is the release, This one rolls a die the size of your draw result, and it's result is the amount you return to the world after you're magic, depending on what you are trying do do this roll will have an inherent penalty, regardless of what you are doing, the penalty will be at least 1

If anyone in the party has world magic, I will show the energy status of the location in the spoiler for the region, please only use it in game if you're character has world magic. The energy level has 2 numbers for example 32(11), the number outside the bracket is how much energy is available. the number in the bracket is how much was used recently, I halve this number at the start of the turn before actions (rounding down), this number goes up by the net effect of the magic (draw result - release result) every time world magic is used. This also effects the severity of what happens if the magic level hits 0, the larger the number the worse.

This magic allows you to manipulate the body of living things, costing the target of the magic stamina, using it on someone other than yourself requires prolonged physical contact, making it hard to use on unwilling people unless they are completely helpless
Power influences how powerful the effect you are doing is, or how far you progress it if it is an extensive modification, then the efficiency roll influences how much stamina it costs, per power, costing 11- the efficiency result stamina per power, if your result is more than 10, then instead you use stamina for multiple power, 11 on the result being 2 power/stamina, 15 being 6 power/stamina, this rounds up

Control is how well you do what you are doing, and is a sort of multiplier for power if doing something with numerical values, like healing, otherwise it is how well you make the alterations

any changes made with this magic are permanent, of course, a new tail could still be cut off, it just will not have things wear out over time

I will also explain in more detail, two different mental defence perks

Mind magic does not use up an energy supply, but it opens yourself up to counter-attack

The process is, roll connection vs mental defence to establish a connection, if the target is willing you just have to not roll a 1, then if you want to do something in their mind, like fool their senses, or take control, whatever you can think of, then you roll mental offence vs mental defence, the offence roll may be penalised depending on how bad what the mage is trying to do will be to the victim. If the mage wins he does what he was planning, possibly limited if it was a near thing, if equal nothing happens, if the defender wins they immeiatley retaliate, rolling their offence vs the mage's defence damaging the mage's mind if they win (no retaliation is possible on retaliation's), regardless of the amount of damage dealt if the defender successfully retaliates, the link is severed

If the link is maintained, the defender gets to roll mental defence against the mage's original result every turn in an attempt to sever the connection, with a 50% chance every turn to gain a cumulative +1 bonus to this roll

Mental Fortress gives the equivalent of 30 skill points in mental defence, and allows you to use your mental defence rather than mental offence when retaliating, you may not invade a mind, but yours is perilous to attack

Mental Null gives the equivalent of 100 skill points in mental defence, and allows you to retaliate against connections, not just attacks, a null's retaliation is unique too, if they retaliate, they take the attackers original total result and then roll another d10 adding the two numbers to each-other, this is opposed by the mage's mental defence, and will at the least prevent the mind mage from using mind magic for a number of turns equal to the amount that the null wins the roll by, with worse effects, including death, being possible in extreme cases, keep in mind, that you may not allow an ally in like normal if you are a mental null.

Spoiler: Tinkering (click to show/hide)

Tinkering has a few more rules than the other tech based skills so I will mention them here. Everytime you make something with tinkering, you make 3 rolls for it. Power affects how well it does what you want it to do, Utility affects how much you can use it, and is scaled by the power level, by how much I mean for example, a gun could require an entire fuel rod to fire once on a poor result. And interface effects how well people other than yourself can use it. The inventor always knows how to use the thing, but anyone else must roll against the inventions (power+utility-Interface) what the person will be rolling is dependant on whether or not they have tinkering, if they do it is all of their points spent in tinkering skills, otherwise it is mechanics. You can be outlandish with tinkering, but I will still make great power cost something.

Spoiler: race (click to show/hide)

Please choose races on how they feel not what their stats are, that said I will put their stats in an acronym of their name, look if you feel the need

Orc

Seen by most to be a brutal, savage people, Orcs are humans that have adapted to survive in the harsh environment of the post manastorm world, they are more muscular than humans and have slightly protruding canines, and even in the age of renewal are mostly found on the outskirts of civilisation, but some of those in charge apreciate them for the ability to survive on those outskirts, and change them to somewhere the more frail races can live.

Elf

Especially after the events 2 years past, elves are seen as untrustworthy, and few people take them at their word but they are swift and agile, hard to hit in melee, and their eyes make them deadly snipers, they are more slim than the average human, and as such, people do not find them threatening, they rarely leave civilisation and those that do are not typical elves, or at least not stereotypical elves, who love their creature comforts and are selfish to the extreme.

Reptilian

Looking like humanoid dragons, some of these creatures also have wings  unlike the rest of the sentient races, these creatures seemed to just appear during the manastorm, rather than be mutated out of human stock their thick scales provide excellent damage resistance, and a fair number of powerful world mages hail from the ranks of the reptilian

Therianthrope

Therianthropes are Humans and orcs that have two copies of a rare recessive gene, this gene first expresses itself around puberty.  There seems to be no rhyme or reason as to what animal a specific Therianthrope will express, only that it is always a mammalian predator.  After the change starts, the therianthrope needs more meat than they used to and are more likely to be agressive.  It is not wide knowledge, but a person that carries only one coppy of the gene can be changed too, but this requires a full therianthrope to exchange bodily fluids with the carrier, and a therianthrope changed this way will always express the same animal as the one who changed them. Dispite this therianthropes are less outsiders than a member of another race.

Players

Spoiler: Aurin Velias(Tiruin) (click to show/hide)

HP: 50/50
Stamina 100/100
Sex: Female
Appearance: An Elf standing at the height of five feet, Aurin's eyes are the color of the morning sky, her skin the hue of a young tree's bark. Her face is roughly an oval  in shape and her dark hair falls to shoulder-length. She is dressed in a dark-green cloak, set in the style of wandering travelers, with a thick underhide for warmth.
Bio: Aurin grew up in the care of her fellowmen, Elves. Tutored by the elders and craftsmen of her race, she grew up mostly as a pacifist and as an idealist. Her knowledge on anatomy helped much in routine hunts for the search for food for her family and for generally everyone else, as even her victims were not to suffer an agonizing death from her attacks, ending them quickly or as quick as she hoped.

When word of the happenings of the world reached her ears, she was distraught to learn how scarred the world has become. Though, being isolated and all, at least there was a silver lining to it all; recovery. She was confident as she set out to help speed up this cure, for she knew the benefits of peace and tranquility in life. Her decision was hers alone, even if many were saddened by her choice.

Carrying a Warbow; a parting gift once used by her father, and proven strong enough to draw and fire it, she left with little trepidation in her heart.

Though, on the inside, she felt happier to be free. After consorting with other races and beings, many things she knew were proven wrong: most of her race was closed to new ideas and kept to themselves, or that other races had closed their minds towards hers. Either way, there was much to learn, and much to discover.

Spoiler: Cat-Eye(HmH) (click to show/hide)

HP 50/50
Stamina 140/140
Sex: Male

Appearance: A tall, athletic man with sleek brown fur covering his body from the neck and down to his toes. His eyes are bright cyan and vertically-slit; his hands bulge with muscles visibly when he closes his fists. Cat-Eye's dark brown hair is bound in a short ponytail and his face is clean-shaven.
Cat-Eye wears a duster embroidered with a spear-pierced dragon, a thin silver-coated steel chain on his belt and a pair of sunglasses to shield his eyes on sunny days.

Bio: Cat-Eye grew up in a reclusive mountain tribe calling themselves the Beast-Hunters. Their notable feature is a ritualistic, regular use of body magic, and its grip on their society is only second to their unyielding zeal in tracking down, capturing and taming magical beasts of all kinds.
After he accidentally killed another member of the tribe, Cat-Eye was sent to capture the elusive Emberbird in the western jungles; the task had no time limit, was considered a fool's errand by many of the tribe's members, and, to be fair, sending someone to find a mythical fiery bird that presumably lives in the jungle was just another way of saying 'don't come back'.
On his mission, Cat-Eye has gotten a taste of the city life... and grew addicted to the luxurious lifestyle of a civilized society. Eventually, Cat-Eye has abandoned his task and became a hunter-for-hire instead, vanquishing or capturing monsters and performing seances of body magic for those willing to pay. Even though he makes a lot of money that way, his fondness for luxury causes him to spend it all shopping; penniless and no longer necessary in one town, he moves to another, never able nor willing to settle down in any single place.

Spoiler: Ixi Ternock(Dwarmin) (click to show/hide)

HP 50/50
Stamina 100/100
Race: Human
Sex: Female
Appearance: A four foot Human female with a light build and stark black hair. She has numerous tattoos adorning herself-most of them look vaguely religious or mythological when viewed from afar, but up close they are revealed to be something different. They tend to shift when one looks away.

Bio: Ixi was born and raised a meer slave in service to a Human cult called the "Mourners"-a group whose stated goal was no less than the destruction of reality itself, starting with the simple things like law, order and honesty. The group is widespread-and growing every day. They wish to keep the shattered world from ever returning to it's former height of decadence.

For most of her life, Ixi did not imagine much beyond her day to day duties-cooking, cleaning, transcribing written work, or other things, far more degrading...chains magical, mental and physical meant she shouldn't have escaped.

But, she found a degree of solace in the arms and heart of another, defying her captors. Slowly but surely, the bond forged began to hedge out the vitriol and mind control of the Cult. They saw the truth. Decided to escape. He didn't make it-sacrificed himself so she could get out.

Now, Ixi wanders the world, evading the hunters and using her grief to empower her magics both mental and physical.

Spoiler: Jos Krin(Maxinum McDreich) (click to show/hide)

HP: 70/70
Stamina: 100/100
Sex: Male
Appearance: Short, spiky brown hair, pretty fit. 5'11'' with blue eyes that can shift from relaxed/lazy to determined and steely. Normally is wearing a kind of body armour in dark green colours. He looks a little younger than he is at 30.
Bio: Jos grew up in a civilisation struggling to keep true to being a civilisation, constantly indoctrined that outside is dangerous and how twisted creatures outside are. Still, Jos was always discerning, a believer in second chances. Having said that, indoctrination made him wary all the same. He went into the military for a while, hoping to gain some discipline and skills to help him gain employment. After a certain time passed, he was allowed to leave, but decided to stay on, feeling purpose in his life in ensuring the lives of others can carry on safely, though he also hated simply being a grunt. When a questionable order was given, Jos refused. The only reason he wasn't executed there and then was because he had been pretty popular amongst the troops. Instead, he was dis-honourably discharged. Determined to use his skills to better those around him, Jos has been working as a kind of mercenary since then, often being hired by the same people that discharged him on account of being a valuable null. Atleast Jos can ensure he won't be ordered around the same anymore.
He's pretty quiet on what that questionable order was, preferring not to talk about it.

Spoiler: Leon Solinn(Talarion) (click to show/hide)

HP: 70/70
Stamina 100/100
Sex: Male
Appearance: Leon stands relatively tall at 5'11, with a wiry build. He has wider shoulders than normal, but the rest of him is lithe and graceful. He has up-curved narrow eyes, coloured green. His skin is slightly tanned, while his hair is dark blonde, bordering on light brown. His usual clothes consist of dark brown boots, pants of a slightly darker tone and a classic button-up white shirt, usually untucked.
Bio (not necessary but appreciated): Leon was born and raised among a small gathering of Humans and Elves. They believed in their own exile as a way of attaining the 'perfect connection' to the sword. In other words, he was trained by reclusive monks, known only by the name 'Blade Brothers' or 'Sword Sisters', before being sent into the wide world at age 14. That was 8 years ago. Since then he has gone where he would, learning of the world and it's occupants... No matter how grim they may be.

The monks had turned him out, simply because, when he was born, he didn't flail towards the hilt of his mother's blade. A mere act of chance had determined what his future would hold, to some degree. Of course, they trained him to look after himself, but once his 14th year arrived, he was no longer able to see his friends and family again.

Somewhere in his travels, maybe 2 or 3 years ago, Leon met a man called Zeicaust, who taught him a lot about swordsmanship in the short time they travelled together. When they decided to part, Zeicaust handed Leon his second, shorter sword, saying only this: "Never forget the weight of a blade. I've taught you what little I could, so take this. I have a feeling I won't be needing it."
It was from Zeicaust that Leon learned how to throw properly, as well as how to counter. After they parted, Zeicaust sustained a crippling injury to his left arm.

Spoiler: Varence(Holymaoh) (click to show/hide)

HP: 50/50
Stamina 100/100
Sex:Male
Race: Human, Therianthrope (Arctic fox)
Appearance: 6'3" He has medium length White hair, fox ears and Bright blue eyes with a scar
across his left, He wares a White trench coat that barely covers his fox tail and he always has
a very creepy smile.

Bio: Orphaned at a very young age, Varence speant many years living off the streets. He often found ways to create weird concoctions; though this was mostly just some water with various common elements which were lying around.
   As Varence got older he began to create more and more complex concoctions making everything from common medicine to deadly poisons. When he was 18 years old he decided to go out into the wastes to research some of the strange creatures that lived there. Many warned him that going there is insane. Varence just brushed off the comments.
   During his first trip into the wastes he was attacked and slashed across the eye by a creature he had never seen before.  As the beast stared him down the only thing going through his head was, "Hmmm... I wonder if this feeling in my left eye is a form of poision? I must have a sample for research," then fell unconscious. A young orc named Auron, who had been following him, chased off the beast and brought Varence back to his encampment. When he finally came to, Auron asked him,  "What on earth were you doing out there?" Varence merely replied, "Studying." The orc decided to leave it alone. When Varence had healed and was finally ready to leave, he asked his new friend, Auron, if he would help track down and get a sample of the poison from the beast that attacked him days earlier. Auron decided to help, knowing that nothing he could say would stop Varence from going. Since then, Varence has gone out into the wastes, with his friend's help, many additional times; bringing back more and more samples to study and experiment on.

Oh damn meant to modify the top post, i guess I will find a use for this

[Tiruin]

Interested! 

Edit: I think nearly half of those players in the original are still alive today, forum-wise.

Spoiler: Sheet finished! (click to show/hide)

Name: Aurin Velias
HP: 50/50 (Before any perks)
Stamina 100/100 (Before any perks)
Sex: Female
Appearance: An Elf standing at the height of five feet, Aurin's eyes are the color of the morning sky, her skin the hue of a young tree's bark. Her face is roughly an oval  in shape and her dark hair falls to shoulder-length. She is dressed in a dark-green cloak, set in the style of wandering travelers, with a thick underhide for warmth.

Bio: Aurin grew up in the care of her fellowmen, Elves. Tutored by the elders and craftsmen of her race, she grew up mostly as a pacifist and as an idealist. Her knowledge on anatomy helped much in routine hunts for the search for food for her family and for generally everyone else, as even her victims were not to suffer an agonizing death from her attacks, ending them quickly or as quick as she hoped.

When word of the happenings of the world reached her ears, she was distraught to learn how scarred the world has become. Though, being isolated and all, at least there was a silver lining to it all; recovery. She was confident as she set out to help speed up this cure, for she knew the benefits of peace and tranquility in life. Her decision was hers alone, even if many were saddened by her choice.

Carrying a Warbow; a parting gift once used by her father, and proven strong enough to draw and fire it, she left with little trepidation in her heart.

Though, on the inside, she felt happier to be free. After consorting with other races and beings, many things she knew were proven wrong: most of her race was closed to new ideas and kept to themselves, or that other races had closed their minds towards hers. Either way, there was much to learn, and much to discover.

ATM reboot? Sweet. Have to go somewhere right now, though.
IN, will make charsheet later.

UPD: Back online, charsheet done.

Spoiler: Charsheet (click to show/hide)

Name: Cat-Eye
HP: 50/50 (Before any perks)
Stamina 100/100 (Before any perks)
Sex: Male

Appearance: A tall, athletic man with sleek brown fur covering his body from the neck and down to his toes. His eyes are bright cyan and vertically-slit; his hands bulge with muscles visibly when he closes his fists. Cat-Eye's dark brown hair is bound in a short ponytail and his face is clean-shaven.
Cat-Eye wears a duster embroidered with a spear-pierced dragon, a thin silver-coated steel chain on his belt and a pair of sunglasses to shield his eyes on sunny days.

Bio: Cat-Eye grew up in a reclusive mountain tribe calling themselves the Beast-Hunters. Their notable feature is a ritualistic, regular use of body magic, and its grip on their society is only second to their unyielding zeal in tracking down, capturing and taming magical beasts of all kinds.
After he accidentally killed another member of the tribe, Cat-Eye was sent to capture the elusive Emberbird in the western jungles; the task had no time limit, was considered a fool's errand by many of the tribe's members, and, to be fair, sending someone to find a mythical fiery bird that presumably lives in the jungle was just another way of saying 'don't come back'.
On his mission, Cat-Eye has gotten a taste of the city life... and grew addicted to the luxurious lifestyle of a civilized society. Eventually, Cat-Eye has abandoned his task and became a hunter-for-hire instead, vanquishing or capturing monsters and performing seances of body magic for those willing to pay. Even though he makes a lot of money that way, his fondness for luxury causes him to spend it all shopping; penniless and no longer necessary in one town, he moves to another, never able nor willing to settle down in any single place.

[Dwarmin]

Name: Ixi Ternock
HP: 50/50 (Before any perks)
Stamina 100/100 (Before any perks)
Sex: Female
Appearance: A four foot Human female with a light build and stark black hair. She has numerous tattoos adorning herself-most of them look vaguely religious or mythological when viewed from afar, but up close they are revealed to be something different. They tend to shift when one looks away.

Bio: Ixi was born and raised a meer slave in service to a Human cult called the "Mourners"-a group whose stated goal was no less than the destruction of reality itself, starting with the simple things like law, order and honesty. The group is widespread-and growing every day. They wish to keep the shattered world from ever returning to it's former height of decadence.

For most of her life, Ixi did not imagine much beyond her day to day duties-cooking, cleaning, transcribing written work, or other things, far more degrading...chains magical, mental and physical meant she shouldn't have escaped.

But, she found a degree of solace in the arms and heart of another, defying her captors. Slowly but surely, the bond forged began to hedge out the vitriol and mind control of the Cult. They saw the truth. Decided to escape. He didn't make it-sacrificed himself so she could get out.

Now, Ixi wanders the world, evading the hunters and using her grief to empower her magics both mental and physical.

Perks:
-Nimble
-Mind Magic
-Skilled: (Custom/20 Extra Skill points)
-Linguist (Custom/Can understand, write and speak most written languages. Mind and Tattoo Magic works better on intelligent creatures who can comprehend words, and less so on bestial ones)
-Ambidextrous (May use either hand)
-Tattoo Magic(Custom/offshoot of Body Magic. Allows Ixi to prepare a variety of useful personal magic effects within the ink on her skin, when given enough time. It tends to produce effects similar to less powerful, but safer body magic, and cannot be done on the fly, though the self made effects can be done and undone mostly by force of will. .)

Perks:

-Linguist (Custom/Can understand, write and speak most written languages. Mind and Tattoo Magic works better on intelligent creatures who can comprehend words, and less so on bestial ones) Do not see a problem here, except mind magic works more on ideas, you can speak to them but it is not necessary and with how I have changed tattoo magic it is a moot point, but speaking languages is definitely not a bad perk
-Subterfuge (Custom/ +1 to sneaking, disguises, eavesdropping etc) These are basically all the stealth skill, better off getting skilled and spending points on stealth
-Tattoo Magic(Custom/offshoot of Body Magic. Allows Izi to prepare a variety of useful personal magic effects within the ink on her skin, when given enough time. It tends to produce effects similar to less powerful, but safer body magic, and cannot be done on the fly, though the self made effects can be done and undone mostly by force of will. I like, but there is one problem, body magic changes the body, it does not leave any magical effect behind and requires the concentration of the mage, what I will allow you to do is test out a magic type that I was having problems deciding how it worked so I axed it, Symbol magic would help other magic schools, by connecting and focusing If you agree I will do tattoo magic as body magic with an extra component, add symbolic application to you're list of non-typed skills, this will allow you to pre do symbols that shape you're magic so it is safer and more controlled, but you will not be able to do body magic without this, it will still require concentration and stamina at the time however, but you can also apply them to other people

There is a strict limit of how many enchanted tattoos can be active at once, though her body can hold as many as can fit on her. Requires a successful skill roll to create them-but can be done upon others.)Axe this part

No because it limits you, the symbol magic is part of you're tattoo magic, you have another perk to spend, and "human versatility" is just "skilled" you do not have to be human to take it

Bio (not necessary but appreciated): Vyn is an adventurous personality. A small-town drifter, he's been on the road for most of his life. His reasons for traveling are unknown, since he doesn't talk much about himself. Not that he's ever had anyone to talk to much, anyway, considering people hate elves.

Name: Jos Krin
HP: 70/70 (tough)
Stamina: 100/100
Sex: Male
Appearance: Short, spiky brown hair, pretty fit. 5'11'' with blue eyes that can shift from relaxed/lazy to determined and steely. Normally is wearing a kind of body armour in dark green colours. He looks a little younger than he is at 30.
Bio: Jos grew up in a civilisation struggling to keep true to being a civilisation, constantly indoctrined that outside is dangerous and how twisted creatures outside are. Still, Jos was always discerning, a believer in second chances. Having said that, indoctrination made him wary all the same. He went into the military for a while, hoping to gain some discipline and skills to help him gain employment. After a certain time passed, he was allowed to leave, but decided to stay on, feeling purpose in his life in ensuring the lives of others can carry on safely, though he also hated simply being a grunt. When a questionable order was given, Jos refused. The only reason he wasn't executed there and then was because he had been pretty popular amongst the troops. Instead, he was dis-honourably discharged. Determined to use his skills to better those around him, Jos has been working as a kind of mercenary since then, often being hired by the same people that discharged him on account of being a valuable null. Atleast Jos can ensure he won't be ordered around the same anymore.
He's pretty quiet on what that questionable order was, preferring not to talk about it.
