/ooc sorry for their being no pictures but it is not allowed due to the NDA and I don't have my kit yet :sweat:. please let me know what you think, and whether you would like me to continue with the journal once I get the kit. Thank you.
It was a cool, dark night when a Male Hume child was born into the world of Vana’diel. Born to a well travelled Black Mage and a Women skilled in the arts of White Magic (though he would never know this), this child was named Signpost; in honour of a hero in the far off world of Tunaria that his father had fought along side. His parents did their best to hide their powers from the child and to allow him to grow up as a regular boy. As a young boy he was like all the other Hume and Galka childen, and had many friends. However, as he matured he began to notice that he was different from his friends. He seemed to have a power within him that he didn’t understand. Knowing that his parents did not wish him to become involved in the battles and wars beyond the city walls he secretly began speaking with mages, knights, and other travellers that lived in or were passing through the Bastok. He took an interest in magics and began to speak with an elderly mage that had long since retired from battle and now owned a small shop within the city. Every night after supper while his parents were busy he would go out and meet with the old mage for stories and a lesson or two in magic. By the time Sign had reached the age of maturity he had already decided to leave home and study to become a mage.
On the eve of his 18th birthday Signpost called his parents into their small house and told them that he wished to leave and study magic. He couldn’t explain why he felt so strongly but his parents understood. Sign told them that he would not go without their support and regretfully (they knew this day would come) they agreed to allow him to leave.
Signpost had always been a child of conflict. He enjoyed helping people but he also enjoyed destruction and hearing of the glory of slaying monsters. Because of this duel nature, he decided that maybe a red mage would be the best job for him upon completing his studies.
After two hard years of study Signpost was ready to graduate from an apprentice and begin his career as a red mage for the city of Bastok. On his 20th birthday Signpost shaved his head and had it tattooed with a symbol representing his family and his devotion to the magics. He was now initiated and was a full-fledged red mage.
On a dark, cool day; much like the day he was born; Signpost bought some basic gear that would allow him to get started on his journey to be the greatest red mage the city of Bastok had ever known. With the power of his parents inside him he stands at the entrance to the city. Ready to take his first step into the lands beyond the gate. They were never allowed outside the city as children because of the many monsters lurking around the city, but now he had to head out and prove to himself that he can do this. He builds up his courage, takes a deep breath and takes his first step outside the protective walls of the city…..
/ooc once I get my beta kit I will continue this strory of Signpost adventures in the world of Vana’diel but until then it will have to wait.
