War Between Worlds (Always open!) | Roleplay

The humans are desperate. Their homeworld had been destroyed in a war for resources, and those who'd made it off of the surface had to find a new home before they ran out off resources themselves. In the fifty years that they'd been in space, they had yet to find an habitable world... Until now. The world below was practically perfect. It had a breathable atmosphere, plenty of fresh water, and had life on it already! However, it had higher gravity than Earth, and an odd type of radiation. However, scientists on board had determined that it would be of no issue. Having decided that this would be the perfect planet, they began to prepare for landing... The Arcanist was intrigued. There was something new in the night sky! Just by looking, he could tell it was no star or comet; it was like nothing he'd seen before. It almost looked like some black and white bird, but there was no way that could be the case. The arcane god frantically scribbed down notes, cataloging everything he could about the strange entity, until one fateful night. Once again, he looked through the telescope, but the white bird had moved. He shifted his view and spotted it once more, this time trailing flames. Even as he watched, it dipped lower and lower in the sky... [center]It landed in the Shifting Expanse.[/center] Rules- 1) All site rules apply. 2) No automatically hitting someone else's character in a fight! That counts as godmodding. 3) If you would like to play a god, you may make a form, but those will be held to much higher standards than simple forms. 4) You may play as an FR dragon, human, or beastclan.

@Pyra

I read this thinking it would be something having to do with War of the Worlds, and then was really disappointed when it wasn't ~~cause, ya know, who doesn't like vaporizing humans?~~, and then got really excited again becuse this is an awesome idea. Count me in! Just gimme a minute to whip up a character.

EDIT:

Name - Draxis
Gender - Female
Age - Around 50 in human years, 100 or so in centaur/dragon years
Class - Beastclan
Race/Flight - Centaur
Written Description - Draxis is tall, standing at 10ft when on four legs, and 12ft when reared back on her hind legs. She has a dappled grey pelt with black socks and a mane/tail. Her human torso is tanned from too long spent in the sun, and she has night black hair and steely silver eyes.

Personality - Since she has lived to see a great deal, Draxis is not easily surprised. And when she is, she doesn't show it. That's what she's good at, you see. Concealing her emotions. The rest of the time Draxis can be found bounding around every inch of Sornieth, bound to no herd. She is an explorer at heart, and takes a great interest in new things. Draxis has an impressive memory, and will likely not forget anything. Nor will she easily forgive. She can be quite stubborn, and her beliefs are not easily changed. Though if you can get past her cold exterior, Draxis makes a very loyal friend and ally.

Any apparel/skins? If so, list here - She sports specially made ebony filigree boots, gauntlets, and a breastplate. The scarf from the breastplate was sewn by an elder centuar, and reads in the Beastclan tongue: From the earth we came, to the earth we shall return (< earth as in dirt, not the planet.) They were a gift from a dragon clan she once encountered on her travels. A clan of blacksmiths, of course. She's also got a deer/stag skull strapped to the area where her human torso mets her horse hindquarters. The skull's antlers are still intact, and decorated with colorful feathers.

Other - Apollo. Technically, he's my random progen, since I exalted my custom in the newb Days of Olde. Close enough. XD
